A refreshing and smooth cold brew coffee drink topped with a creamy, subtly spiced pumpkin cream. Perfect for any season, this easy recipe combines bold cold brew with a homemade pumpkin cream topping for a cozy coffee treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (8 fl oz) cold brew coffee, chilled
  • 2 tablespoons pumpkin puree (canned or fresh, not pumpkin pie filling)
  • 1/4 cup (2 fl oz) heavy cream, chilled (half-and-half works too)
  • 1/4 cup (2 fl oz) milk, chilled (dairy or plant-based like oat milk)
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup (or honey)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground ginger (optional)
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Chill the heavy cream, milk, and cold brew coffee in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before starting.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine heavy cream, milk, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
  3. Add ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger (if using). Whisk gently to combine.
  4. Using a hand mixer or whisk, beat the mixture until it thickens and forms soft peaks, about 2-3 minutes with a mixer or longer by hand. The texture should be creamy, fluffy, and pourable.
  5. Fill a tall glass with 1 cup of chilled cold brew coffee.
  6. Slowly spoon or pour the whipped pumpkin cream over the cold brew to create a layered effect.
  7. Serve immediately. Optionally, stir gently before drinking or add ice for extra chill.

Notes

For best results, use super cold cream and milk to help the cream whip better. Avoid overwhipping to prevent buttery texture. Adjust spices to taste. Use strong cold brew or double concentrate for balanced flavor. The pumpkin cream can be stored in the fridge up to 2 days; whisk before serving. Cold brew can be stored up to a week separately. For dairy-free, substitute heavy cream and milk with coconut cream and plant-based milk.
