How to Make Starbucks Pumpkin Cold Foam?
Here comes the step-by-step procedure of how to make pumpkin cold foam.
Step 1 – Making Cold Brew Coffee
The first step is to keep your most important ingredient ready by combining ground coffee with water. You can prepare it the night before so that there’s enough time for it to steep overnight. Remember, the cold brew coffee in this recipe needs to be much more concentrated than a regular coffee.
Step 2 – Making the base
This step is quite simple. Whip the cream and add condensed milk and vanilla extract to it.
Step 3 – Add Pumpkin Spice Syrup
If you fail to get hold of a canned Pumpkin spice syrup/sauce, you may follow our little secret. Combine water, sugar, pumpkin pie spice and a little salt. Heat it for approximately 10 minutes in a saucepan. Don’t forget to reduce the flame. After turning off the heat, stir and let it cool for a while.
Step 4 – Whip to Make the Cold Foam
The favourite part of the process for many of us. In a plunger/ blender, add the pumpkin cream that you prepared with milk and ice to turn its form into foam. The tiny bubbles that appear will give a velvety texture to the coffee. You may also use a handled milk frother to prepare the foamy upper layer.
There is an alternative method as well, which is to, pour the cream into a cold jar and shake vigorously. But this might not be much effective in forming the right texture you desire.
Step 5 – Make the Drink
Now to turn the home-made Starbucks Pumpkin Cold Foam into a liquified drink with heavy cream on top, pour the entire thing over the cold brew. Add drops of Pumpkin pie syrup on top and taste it.
For Pumpkin Spice topping, you may also mix cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and cloves. By following these five simple steps you get one of the most amazing Starbucks coffee ready to be served. It takes little time, effort and money.
