Description
A simple recipe for a cold brew coffee drink flavored with pumpkin and chai spices.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup cold brew coffee concentrate
- 1/2 cup water
- 2 tablespoons pumpkin puree
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar
- Pinch of ground cinnamon for garnish
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, combine the cold brew concentrate, water, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla extract.
- Heat the mixture over medium heat until warm, stirring constantly. Do not boil.
- Remove from heat and let it cool completely. You can speed this up by placing the saucepan in an ice bath.
- Once cool, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove the pumpkin solids. This is your pumpkin chai base.
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar until soft peaks form.
- Fill a glass with ice. Pour the chilled pumpkin chai base over the ice.
- Gently spoon the whipped cream mixture on top of the coffee.
- Garnish with a pinch of ground cinnamon before serving.
Notes
- For a quicker version, skip heating and thoroughly whisk the base ingredients together, then strain.
- Use store-bought cold brew concentrate for convenience.
- Adjust maple syrup amount based on your preferred sweetness.
