For the Pumpkin Cream Cold Foam
  • 3/4 cup 2% milk
  • 1/4 cup Heavy cream
  • 2 1/2 tablespoon Pumpkin spice sauce store-bought or recipe below
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla syrup store-bought or linked recipe, can substitute with 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Pumpkin Spice Sauce
  • 1 14 oz can Fat-free sweetened condensed milk use regular if you can't find fat-free
  • 1 cup Pumpkin puree
  • 1 tablespoon Pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Equipment

  • Glass
  • Mason jar
  • Electric frother
  • Saucepan

Method
 

  1. Make the Pumpkin Spice Sauce: Combine condensed milk, pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, and salt in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir and heat for about 5 minutes, until it starts to bubble. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract. Pour into a heat-proof container and refrigerate to cool.
  2. Make the Pumpkin Cream Cold Foam: In a mason jar, combine milk, heavy cream, pumpkin spice sauce, and vanilla syrup. Shake well or stir in a bowl. To turn it into cold foam, use an electric frother, hand mixer, or blender until foamy. Alternatively, shake vigorously in a mason jar until frothy.
  3. Assemble the Drink: Fill a glass with ice. Add chai tea concentrate, then pour in the milk.
  4. Top the drink with the pumpkin cream cold foam and sprinkle with pumpkin pie spice.

Notes

The pumpkin spice sauce recipe makes enough for about 8 lattes. Each batch of pumpkin cream cold foam is enough for 3 drinks. Store leftover cold cream in the refrigerator and whip into cold foam when ready to use.
