Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 cup whole milk
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp pumpkin puree
  • 1/4 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 cup cold brew coffee
  • Ice for serving

Method
 

  1. Combine 1 cup of coarsely ground coffee with 3 cups of room temperature water in a mason jar.
  2. Seal the jar and let steep at room temperature for 12 hours.
  3. Strain the coffee grounds using a fine-mesh sieve or paper filter into a clean container.
  4. In a small frothing pitcher, combine heavy cream, whole milk, brown sugar, pumpkin puree, and pumpkin pie spice.
  5. Use an electric milk frother for 30 seconds until the mixture is thick and airy.
  6. Fill a glass with ice, pour in the cold brew, and top with the prepared pumpkin sweet cream.

Notes

Use oat milk as a dairy-free alternative for the sweet cream. Ensure you use pureed pumpkin and not pumpkin pie filling to avoid excess additives. For best results, use a coarse grind for the coffee to prevent a muddy brew.
