Ingredients
Scale
Pumpkin Cold Foam
- 2 tablespoons heavy whipping cream
- 1 tablespoon whole milk
- 1 tablespoon canned pumpkin puree
- 1 tablespoon vanilla syrup
- 1/8 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
Iced Chai Latte
- 1/2 cup milk of choice (such as 2%)
- 1/2 cup chai tea concentrate
- Ice, as needed
Instructions
- Make the Pumpkin Cold Foam: In a mason jar or glass, combine the heavy whipping cream, whole milk, pumpkin puree, vanilla syrup, and pumpkin pie spice. Use a milk frother to whip the mixture until it becomes thick, fluffy, and well-combined, about 10-20 seconds. Set aside.
- Assemble the Iced Chai: Fill a serving glass with ice, then pour in the 1/2 cup milk of your choice followed by 1/2 cup chai tea concentrate.
- Add the Pumpkin Cold Foam: Spoon the pumpkin cold foam generously over the top of your iced chai latte.
- Serve and Enjoy: Stir gently if desired, then sip and enjoy your homemade pumpkin cream chai tea latte!
Notes
- Use canned pumpkin puree for best flavor and texture; avoid pumpkin pie filling which contains added sugar and spices.
- If you don’t have pumpkin pie spice, you can make your own blend with cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves.
- Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less vanilla syrup according to your taste.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute heavy cream and milk with coconut cream and almond milk, respectively.
- Serve immediately for optimal texture and freshness of the pumpkin cold foam.
