Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 0.5 cup heavy cream cold
  • 0.25 cup 2% milk cold
  • 2 tbsp vanilla syrup adjust to taste
  • 0.25 tsp vanilla extract optional

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Add heavy cream, 2% milk, vanilla syrup, and vanilla extract to a cold milk frother or a lidded jar.
  • Frother method: run on the cold foam setting for 15 to 30 seconds until thick, glossy, and pourable.
  • Jar method: seal and shake vigorously for 20 to 30 seconds until the volume increases and soft peaks form.
  • Use immediately: pour slowly over iced coffee or cold brew, then spoon remaining foam on top.
  • Taste and adjust sweetness with a splash of additional vanilla syrup if desired.

Notes

For a lighter version, swap in half-and-half for the heavy cream. For dairy-free foam, use equal parts barista-style oat milk and coconut cream, well chilled. Cold ingredients whip faster and hold their texture longer.
