Ingredients
Pumpkin Cold Foam:
- 2 tablespoons heavy whipping cream
- 1 tablespoon whole milk
- 1 tablespoon canned pumpkin puree
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup (or vanilla syrup)
- ⅛ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
Chai Tea Latte:
- ½ cup milk of choice (2% milk recommended)
- ½ cup chai tea concentrate
Instructions
- Prepare Pumpkin Cold Foam: Add the heavy whipping cream, whole milk, canned pumpkin puree, maple syrup, and pumpkin pie spice into a mason jar or glass. Use a milk frother to froth the mixture until it becomes whipped and well-combined, approximately 10-20 seconds. Set this cold foam mixture aside.
- Assemble the Latte: Fill a serving glass with ice cubes. Pour in ½ cup of your preferred milk followed by ½ cup of chai tea concentrate, layering the flavors to create a rich base.
- Top and Serve: Spoon or pour the prepared pumpkin cold foam over the iced chai latte, creating a creamy, spiced topping. Serve immediately and enjoy the delicious seasonal flavors.
Notes
- For a dairy-free version, substitute the cream and milk with coconut cream and almond milk respectively.
- Adjust the pumpkin pie spice amount to your preference for a more or less intense spice flavor.
- This recipe can be sweetened with vanilla syrup instead of maple syrup for a different nuance.
- Use a strong chai concentrate or brew your own chai tea concentrate for the best flavor.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the cold foam’s creamy texture before it settles.
