Equipment

Secura Detachable Milk Frother

Ingredients

Sweet Cream Cold Foam

¼ cup heavy cream
1 ½ tablespoons powdered sugar

Irish Cream Cold Brew

3 tablespoons Irish cream syrup
¾ cup cold brew coffee
1 cup ice cubes
1 teaspoon cocoa powder for dusting

Instructions

Froth the heavy cream and powdered sugar together with a milk frother or whisk until thick and creamy. Set aside.
1/4 cup heavy cream, 1 1/2 tablespoons powdered sugar
Add the Irish cream syrup to the glass and fill with ice.
3 tablespoons Irish cream syrup, 1 cup ice cubes
Pour the cold brew coffee into the glass or until the glass is 3/4 full and give a quick stir to combine. Be sure to leave some room at the top for your cream.
3/4 cup cold brew coffee
Top with the frothed sweet cream and dust with cocoa powder.
1 teaspoon cocoa powder

Notes

I use homemade cold brew coffee, but you can also use chilled brewed coffee or store bought cold brew to make this recipe. If brewing hot coffee, be sure it is completely cold before using.
For some extra sweetness add a pump of Irish cream syrup to your cream and sugar when frothing.
