Ingredients
Prepared Coffee
- 2 glasses Prepared Cold Brew or Iced Coffee
Homemade Raspberry Syrup
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- ¼ cup maple syrup
Raspberry Cold Foam
- 1 cup heavy cream
- ¼ cup whole milk
- 1 cup prepared raspberry syrup
- 1 teaspoon chunky sea salt
- More fresh raspberries for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare Glass and Coffee Cubes: Fill a glass with ice and place it in the freezer to chill. Prepare iced coffee cubes the night before so they are ready to use. Make your cold brew coffee and keep it refrigerated until ready.
- Make Homemade Raspberry Syrup: In a blender, combine the fresh raspberries and maple syrup. Blend on high until fully combined. Optionally, strain the mixture through a fruit strainer to remove seeds or leave them for added texture.
- Prepare Raspberry Cold Foam: In a cold foam milk frother, add the homemade raspberry syrup, heavy cream, whole milk, and a little maple syrup, then froth until the mixture is thick and creamy.
- Assemble the Drink: Take two glasses and fill them with ice along with your pre-made iced coffee cubes. Pour in the prepared cold brew.
- Top and Garnish: Spoon the raspberry cold foam on top of the coffee. Sprinkle with chunky sea salt and garnish with fresh raspberries. Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade raspberry cream cold foam iced coffee.
Notes
- For best flavor, make the raspberry syrup fresh and use fresh raspberries.
- Using iced coffee cubes prevents the drink from diluting too quickly.
- You can adjust sweetness by slightly increasing or decreasing the maple syrup in syrup or foam.
- If you don’t have a cold foam frother, a hand-held milk frother works as a good alternative.
- Chunky sea salt adds a unique flavor contrast but can be omitted if preferred.
