You don’t need any special tools to create it at home; only a milk frother or blender will do.
Ingredients
- One cup of cold brew coffee
- 1 teaspoon of maple syrup (or any other sweetener you like)
- Cubes of ice
- ½ cup of oat milk (the barista style works best!)
- 1 tsp. of maple syrup
- ¼ teaspoon of ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon of vanilla extract
Tools Needed
- A milk frother (or a blender or jar with a cover)
- Spoons for measuring
- A tall glass
- A spoon for stirring
Preparation Instructions
- Put ice in a tall glass and pour in 1 cup of cold brew coffee. Add 1 teaspoon of maple syrup to make it sweet.
- Mix together ½ cup of oat milk, 1 teaspoon of maple syrup, ¼ teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and ¼ teaspoon of vanilla essence in a small cup or frother. Whip till it is light and fluffy.
- Pour the cinnamon oat milk froth over the iced cold brew slowly, letting it float on top.
- You can mix it gently if you want, or you can drink it as is for the perfect layered effect.
Tips and Variations
- Use barista-style oat milk—it froths much better than regular oat milk.
- Adjust sweetness to your liking! Add more or less maple syrup depending on how sweet you like your coffee.
- A portable milk frother works best for the foam, but a blender or even a jar with a tight lid (for shaking) can work too!
- Want more cinnamon flavor? Put a small amount of cinnamon right into the cold brew before you stir it.
- Serve right away! The foam will progressively blend with the coffee, thus the greatest texture is when you drink it right away.
- No dairy? You can use almond milk, coconut milk, or soy milk instead of oat milk, which is already dairy-free.
- Want to change sweeteners? Instead of maple syrup, use honey, agave syrup, or simple syrup.
- No Cold Brew? Make strong coffee, let it cool, and then utilize that.
- Extra fancy? Before serving, add a bit more cinnamon on top of the foam.
- The best way to enjoy it is fresh! Over time, the foam will lose air.
- You can preserve the frothed oat milk in the fridge for a few hours before serving if you need to get ready ahead of time.
