Pumpkin Spice
This iced coffee is topped with pumpkin cream cold foam. If you like cream in your coffee, you could try adding a pumpkin creamer or pumpkin spice syrup to kick up the sweetness and flavor if you prefer.
Make it Healthy
- This recipe is low-carb, low-sugar, gluten-free.
- Because of the cream, it is a bit higher in fat, but enjoy it in moderation or use lower-fat cream.
- Make this plant-based and substitute creamy oat milk for the heavy cream.
Pumpkin Spice Cold Brew Ingredients
Here are the ingredients you will need to make pumpkin cream cold brew:
- Pre Made Cold Brew Coffee - make your own coffee at home or use store-bought for ease.
- Vanilla Syrup - regular or sugar-free.
- Heavy Cream - substitute oat milk or almond milk for plant based or vegetarian.
- Pumpkin Puree - unsweetened canned pumpkin puree. This adds amazing fresh taste to the pumpkin cold foam! You could also use pumpkin spice syrup.
- Powdered Sugar - regular or sugar substitute.

Substitutions and Variations
Here are a few ways you can vary or make substitutions to this recipe:
- Replace the powdered sweetener with natural sugar such as maple syrup or honey.
- Adjust the amount of sweetener or syrup in your coffee to your taste.
- Use a store-bought cold brew or cold brew concentrate of your choice, or I have two recipes for at-home cold brew: Cold Brew Coffee Recipe or a French Press Cold Brew version to check out!
- Make your own vanilla syrup with a little vanilla extract and your favorite sweetener.
- Add a little pumpkin pie spice to taste or cinnamon.
- For the best taste, use real pumpkin puree. Pumpkin pie filling may also be used.
- Instead of puree, pumpkin-flavored syrup may be used but you'll need to omit the sweetener in the pumpkin cold foam; otherwise, it will make it too sweet.
How To Make Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew
Here are the step-by-step instructions for making this recipe:
Flavor The Cold Brew
- Add 1 tablespoon vanilla syrup and your cold brew to the bottom of a 16 to 18-ounce glass.
- Stir together until well blended.
- Fill your glass with ice, leaving room for the pumpkin foam (about 2 inches) from the top.
Make The Pumpkin Cream Cold Foam
- Combine the heavy whipping cream, sweetener, and 1 tablespoon of pumpkin puree in a small bowl with a whisk or a milk frother. Whip the cream until it doubles in volume or reaches your desired consistency. Note: Be careful not to overwhip your cream, or it will separate.
- Pour your creamy cold foam over top of your cold brew.
How To Serve Pumpkin Sweet Cream Cold Brew
- Garnish by sprinkling a little pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, or nutmeg on top of your foam.
- Cold brew is best served chilled or over ice. Place your glass in the freezer about 30 minutes ahead of time to serve with a chilled glass also!
- Garnish the top of your glass with pumpkin pie spice for extra pumpkin flavor.
- If you like cream in your iced coffee, add a splash of cream and stir before adding the foam on top. Try using a flavored creamer of your choice.
Top Tips
- Adjust any flavoring to your liking.
- Make sure to leave enough room on the top of your glass for your cold foam.
- Remember to not over froth your heavy whipping cream. It will eventually turn to butter and separate.
- Feel free to make extra cold foam and store it in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the refrigerator.
- No frother? Place the cream in a mason jar and cover tightly. Shake vigorously until your cold foam has thickened to the proper consistency.
