Makes: 1 grande drink

Ingredients

  • 10 oz cold brew
  • Ice
  • 1 oz. cinnamon caramel syrup (store-bought or recipe below)
  • cup cinnamon caramel cold foam (recipe below)
  • ¼ tsp Ground cinnamon and granulated sugar mixture, for topping

Cinnamon Caramel Syrup

  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup water, divided
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon

Cinnamon Caramel Cold Foam

  • ¾ cup 2% milk
  • ¼ cup heavy cream
  • 2 Tbsp cinnamon caramel syrup (store-bought or recipe below)
  • ¼ tsp vanilla extract (see notes if using vanilla syrup instead)

Instructions

  • Pour cold brew into an ice-filled glass. Stir in cinnamon caramel syrup.
  • Top drink with cinnamon caramel cream cold foam and sprinkled on cinnamon and sugar mixture.

Cinnamon Caramel Syrup

  • Put sugar and ½ cup water in a medium saucepan and bring mixture to a boil while stirring occasionally.
  • Once sugar has dissolved, let mixture continue boiling without stirring. Watch closely for mixture to turn a light amber color. It usually takes about 8-10 minutes for me, but it can go from light amber to being burnt very quickly, so be sure to watch closely.
  • Once mixture is light amber, immediately remove from heat and slowly and carefully pour remaining ½ cup water in. It will likely splatter and steam up, so stand back while pouring. Add vanilla and ground cinnamon and stir well to combine.
  • Pour syrup into a heat-proof bowl or mason jar and place in fridge to cool completely. Syrup will continue to thicken as it cools.

Cinnamon Caramel Cold Foam

  • Mix milk, cream, cinnamon caramel syrup, and vanilla extract in a bowl until well combined. Or place all ingredients in a mason jar and shake. This is your cinnamon caramel cold cream... Keep it in the fridge until you're ready to turn it into cold foam right before using.
  • To turn into foam, you can either use an electric frother, hand mixer, or blender. Alternatively, you can shake the mixture in a mason jar until it's frothy.

Notes

  • For cold foam: If you have vanilla syrup, you can use ½ Tbsp vanilla syrup and 1 ½ Tbsp cinnamon caramel syrup. Otherwise, you can use 2 Tbsp cinnamon caramel syrup and ¼ tsp vanilla extract. If you don't have vanilla extract or syrup, leave it out and the cold foam will still be delicious.
  • You should be able to make about 3 drinks with cold foam recipe and 2-3 drinks with cinnamon caramel syrup (when using it in both coffee and cold foam). Both recipes can easily be doubled.
  • Cinnamon caramel syrup can keep in fridge in an airtight container for about a month.
