Instructions
Place the cream, condensed milk and milk into your blender. If you're using a different device, see the notes above.
Process on high speed until big bubbles form. Continue to blend until the texture becomes smoother and thicker.
On one side of the blender, carefully add the pumpkin puree, vanilla syrup, pumpkin spice and salt. You want to make sure adding these ingredients does not deflate the cold foam. Blend until well combined and foamy.
Add ice and coffee to your cup of choice, then top up with ¼ - ½ cup of the pumpkin foam.
Notes
Servings - This recipe makes 1-2 servings depending on the desired amount you pour onto your coffee.
Vanilla Syrup - use store-bought vanilla syrup or make your own at home, it's super simple!
Pumpkin Spice - use a store-bought pumpkin spice mix or make your own with cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves and allspice.
You can also prepare the cold foam with a hand whisk, or electric milk frother (see notes). Basically any device that's good for whipping and frothing.
