Description
Create a velvety smooth pumpkin cream cold foam easily at home using a French press in just 2 minutes. This delightful topping is perfect for adding a creamy, seasonal touch to your iced beverages with a balanced blend of heavy cream, milk, pumpkin spice sauce, and vanilla syrup.
Ingredients
Cold Foam Ingredients
- ¼ cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons 2% milk
- 2 tablespoons pumpkin spice sauce
- 1 tablespoon vanilla syrup
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: Put heavy cream, milk, vanilla syrup, and pumpkin spice sauce into a French press. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients evenly.
- Stir to Distribute: Stir again to ensure the pumpkin spice sauce doesn’t settle at the bottom of the French press, promoting uniform flavor distribution.
- Froth the Foam: Place the lid on the French press and move the plunger up and down rapidly 40 times. This action aerates the mixture and creates cold foam, increasing its volume significantly.
- Serve: Pour the fluffy cold foam on top of your favorite iced drink. The foam adds a rich, creamy texture and seasonal flavor boost.
Notes
- For a lighter foam with fewer calories, substitute the heavy cream and milk with ⅓ cup of half & half, which is an equal mix of cream and milk.
- The milk helps thin the heavy cream so the foam isn’t as thick as whipped cream. Starbucks uses 2% milk, but any milk can be used according to preference.
- Because the foam expands in volume, avoid overfilling the French press before frothing.
- Ensure the French press filter is in contact with the cream and milk mixture to create optimal foam.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated for a couple of days, but the foam is best when freshly made and served immediately.
