Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups strong cold brew coffee, chilled
- 1 cup ice cubes
- For the Pumpkin Cream Cold Foam:
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/4 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 2 tablespoons pumpkin puree (canned)
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Prepare the Pumpkin Cream Cold Foam: In a medium bowl, combine the heavy whipping cream, milk, pumpkin puree, powdered sugar, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla extract.
- Use an electric hand mixer or a whisk to beat the mixture on medium-high speed until it becomes thick, fluffy, and holds soft peaks. This replicates the cold foam texture.
- Prepare the Cold Brew: Fill a tall glass with ice cubes.
- Pour the chilled cold brew coffee over the ice, filling the glass about three-quarters full.
- Top the cold brew with the prepared Pumpkin Cream Cold Foam, spooning it gently over the top of the coffee.
- Garnish with an extra sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice, if desired. Serve immediately.
Notes
- For a thinner foam, reduce the heavy cream slightly or add a splash more milk.
- If you do not have an electric mixer, you can vigorously whisk the foam ingredients by hand, but this will take longer to achieve the correct thickness.
- Use your favorite cold brew concentrate or store-bought cold brew for the base.
