Everybody knows Starbuck's famous pumpkin cream cold brew they come out with each fall. There's always lines out the door and people spending $6 on 1 cup of coffee. Fun fact- I refused to drink a pumpkin spice latte my entire life up until last year because I thought it was way overhyped. I prefer apples and sweet potatoes as my fall foods but I do now understand the hype.

There are 31 grams of added sugar in the Starbucks version but only less than 5 grams of sugar in mine. How? Recipe is below.

Instructions

Healthier Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew

Prepare 1 cup of cold brew as you would using your coffee machine
For the foam, in a glass measuring cup, mix all ingredients together
Froth until you reach a foam consistency
Pour over cold brew and enjoy!

Tips

The less fat in the milk, the easier to froth. Heavy cream is optional and adds a creamier taste but only add a little bit or your mixture will not froth
There is only 1/2 tsp of each ingredient because you don't want it to get chunky. This amount adds flavor while not ruining the consistency
Trader Joe's maple almond beverage also works great in place of skim milk and maple syrup
