Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup milk whole or 2%
  • 2 tablespoons pumpkin puree 100% pure
  • 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup optional
  • Coffee or Latte for serving
  • Pinch of pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, or drizzle of maple syrup for garnish, optional

Equipment

  • Small bowl or measuring cup
  • whisk
  • Plastic wrap
  • Refrigerator
  • Milk frother (preferred)
  • Immersion blender (alternative)
  • Mason jar (alternative)
  • Glass or mug for serving
  • spoon

Method
 

  1. Combine the heavy cream, milk, pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla extract, and powdered sugar in a small bowl or measuring cup.
  2. Whisk the ingredients together until well combined and there are no lumps.
  3. If using maple syrup, add it to the mixture and whisk until incorporated. Taste and adjust the sweetness as needed.
  4. Cover the bowl or measuring cup with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the mixture to thicken and the flavors to meld.
  5. Froth the cold foam using your preferred method: milk frother (30-60 seconds until thick and creamy), immersion blender (carefully blend until frothy), whisk (whisk vigorously until light and airy), or mason jar (seal tightly and shake vigorously for 30-60 seconds until frothy).
  6. Pour your favorite iced coffee or latte into a glass, leaving about an inch of space at the top.
  7. Gently spoon or pour the pumpkin cold foam over the top of the coffee.
  8. Garnish with a pinch of pumpkin pie spice, a drizzle of maple syrup, or a sprinkle of cinnamon, if desired.
  9. Serve immediately and enjoy.

Notes

For the best results, use cold ingredients. The colder the heavy cream and milk, the better the foam will whip. Don't over-whip the foam, or it may become stiff and clumpy. Adjust the sweetness to your liking by adding more or less powdered sugar or maple syrup. Use high-quality pumpkin puree for the best flavor. You can prepare the pumpkin cold foam mixture up to 24 hours in advance and store it in the refrigerator. Froth it right before serving. The foam is best served immediately after frothing. If it sits for too long, it may start to separate. If using an immersion blender, be careful not to over-blend, or the foam will collapse. To stabilize the foam, you can add a pinch of xanthan gum to the mixture.
