Ingredients
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup 2% milk
- 2 tablespoons vanilla syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional, for extra flavor)
Instructions
- Combine the heavy cream, 2% milk, vanilla syrup, and vanilla extract in a small mixing cup or jar.
- Use a handheld milk frother to froth the mixture for 30–60 seconds until it is thick, light, and pourable.
- If you do not have a frother, shake the mixture vigorously in a tightly sealed jar or whisk until foamy.
- Pour the cold foam over iced coffee, cold brew, iced lattes, iced chai, or iced matcha.
- Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
Notes
- Use sugar-free vanilla syrup for a lower-sugar option.
- Add a pinch of cinnamon for a warm spice flavor.
- Mix in caramel syrup for a caramel vanilla variation.
- Stir in a small amount of cocoa powder for a chocolate version.
- For a dairy-free option, use dairy-free heavy whipping cream with oat or almond milk.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and froth again before serving.
- Do not freeze or reheat, as it is intended to be served cold.
