  • Total Time: 5 minutes
  • Yield: 1 serving

Ingredients

Lavender Cold Foam Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon lavender syrup
  • 3 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1-2 teaspoons sweetener (adjust to taste, such as regular sugar, stevia, agave, honey, etc.)
  • ⅛ teaspoon purple sweet potato powder (for color; can substitute with purple food coloring)
  • Dried lavender (for topping; optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Gather 1 tablespoon lavender syrup, 3 tablespoons heavy cream, 2 tablespoons milk, sweetener of your choice, and purple sweet potato powder for coloring.
  2. Mix Lavender Syrup and Heavy Cream: Combine lavender syrup and heavy cream in a bowl or jar and stir or shake until the mixture thickens slightly. Add your desired amount of sweetener and mix well.
  3. Froth the Mixture: Use a milk frother to blend the lavender syrup, heavy cream, and milk together until the foam becomes light and fluffy. If you don't have a frother, place the ingredients in a jar or tupperware with a lid and shake vigorously until frothy.
  4. Adjust Consistency and Flavor: Taste the foam and add more lavender syrup or sweetener if desired. If the foam is too thick, add a splash more milk to reach your preferred texture.
  5. Add Coloring: Stir in ⅛ teaspoon purple sweet potato powder for a natural lavender hue. Alternatively, you can use a few drops of purple food coloring to achieve the desired color.
  6. Top Your Drink: Pour the prepared lavender cold foam over your beverage of choice, such as iced coffee or latte.
  7. Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle dried lavender buds on top of the foam for an elegant and aromatic finish. Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing lavender cold foam topping.

Notes

  • If you don't have a milk frother, shaking the mixture vigorously in a sealed container works well to create foam.
  • Adjust the sweetness to your preference or omit sweetener for a less sweet foam.
  • Use purple sweet potato powder for natural coloring or substitute with purple food coloring as an alternative.
  • Dried lavender is optional but adds a lovely floral aroma and visual appeal.
  • Serve immediately to enjoy the best texture and flavor of the cold foam.
