Can I make my own cold brew coffee or should I buy it?
Honestly, this depends on your preference! I usually like to make my own cold brew at home because it is cheaper and it makes it that much more rewarding. Here is an awesome recipe to make cold brew at home.
If you want something a little easier and want to purchase your cold brew from the store, you should be able to find it at your local grocery store. I like to get the Starbucks store-bought cold brew to make it taste as close to the real deal!
What do I need to make pumpkin cream cold foam:
- Blender- I think the blender is the easiest. I use my nutribullet and it works like a charm.
- Hand held frothing wand– This is my second choice. It makes a smooth pumpkin cream ipretty quickly.
