Ingredients
Scale
Pumpkin Cream Cold Foam
- 1/2 cup heavy cream (or whole milk for a lighter version)
- 2 tablespoons canned pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup (or sweetener of choice)
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
For Serving
- Ice (for your iced coffee)
- Iced coffee or cold brew (store-bought or homemade)
- Ground cinnamon for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Pumpkin Cream Cold Foam: In a mixing bowl, combine heavy cream, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and vanilla extract. Use a hand frother or a blender to whip the mixture until it becomes smooth and frothy, forming the creamy cold foam that will top your drink.
- Assemble the Drink: Fill a glass with ice cubes to chill your beverage. Pour in your iced coffee or cold brew until the glass is about three-quarters full, leaving room for the pumpkin cream on top.
- Add the Pumpkin Cream: Spoon the prepared pumpkin cream cold foam gently over the iced coffee, allowing it to float beautifully on the surface, creating a layered look and rich texture.
- Garnish and Serve: Optionally, sprinkle a pinch of ground cinnamon on top of the foam to enhance the aroma and presentation. Serve immediately and enjoy the delicious seasonal flavors.
Notes
- You can substitute heavy cream with whole milk for a lighter version of the cold foam.
- Use pure canned pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling, to avoid extra spices and sugars.
- Adjust sweetness by varying the amount of maple syrup or your preferred sweetener.
- This cold foam works well with any iced coffee or cold brew base.
- Best enjoyed fresh for optimal frothiness and flavor.
