If you’re a coffee-lover, you’ll probably agree that cold foam is one of the most enjoyable add-ins of the summer.

The texture is so creamy, and it tastes so good! But there’s a catch: it’s not available in many places.

If you want to enjoy this delicious fall beverage during the summer, why not just make a pumpkin spice version?

It’s the time of year when pumpkin spice lattes are in full swing. You can just feel the chill in the air.

All ingredients that are used to make pumpkin spice cold foam at home.

Low-fat milk is best used to create the most fluffy cold foam possible. You can use any low-fat milk you prefer.

I’ve also tried making it with whole milk, but the foam falls apart too fast and doesn’t fluffy that much.

If you prefer using dairy-free milk, you can also use this. However, I’ve noticed that cold foaming any milk-free alternative will be quite hard, and it also doesn’t hold its structure that well.

But if you foam it long enough, you might be able to create some amazing cold foam to use for your coffees!

How to make the homemade pumpkin spice mix

The homemade pumpkin spice mix is one the easiest to do and requires just a few ground spices to get started:

  • 20 grams of ground cinnamon
  • 10 grams of ground ginger
  • 5 grams of ground cloves
  • 2 grams of ground nutmeg
  • 2 grams of ground black pepper

Although there are many spices, you probably have most of these spices in your kitchen cabinet.

Weight out the spices in a bowl and mix them to create the pumpkin spice mix.
