Peppermint Cold Foam

Chocolate Cream Cold Foam is a luscious and velvety topping designed to enhance the flavor and pretty your drink creations. Like our Pumpkin Cream Cold Foam, this one adds a cool peppermint, rich chocolate, and creamy frothy goodness not only adds a beautiful layer but gives it a burst of festive flavor.

Chocolate Sweet Cream Foam

This is How to Make Cold Foam for Coffee in general. You don’t have to add mint at all if you don’t want to. There are 2 ways you can do this though, either with a bit of syrup or extract or crushed candy canes on top! I prefer the latter of the two because it adds crunchy texture and makes it a lot prettier too.

  1. Heavy cream will provide the creamy foundation for the foam, delivering a luxurious texture.
  2. Peppermint extract is the star of the show, imparting that refreshing and invigorating minty flavor.
  3. Cocoa powder or chocolate syrup adds the rich, indulgent chocolate element to the foam.
  4. A sweetener like sugar or a syrup is used to balance the flavors and provide sweetness, but optional.
  5. Cocoa powder and Malt powder gives it that chocolate omph
  6. If you want to give the cream cold foam recipe a festive touch, you can add a drop or two of red food coloring for a subtle pink hue.

Pour the copycat Starbucks chocolate cold foam over any beverage you like. Iced coffee is the most common but even on top of our Homemade Peppermint Frappuccino is great.

There are tips to your success you should follow when making this copycat recipe you may have had at Starbucks. Once you get the hang of how it is done you can tweak in many different ways.

Want vanilla sweet cream cold foam on top of your Chocolate Stout Cold Brew? Use the vanilla malted milk and skip the cocoa. Use the same cream, milk but vanilla syrup would replace the mint.

How to Make Chocolate Cream Cold Foam

  1. To ensure the cream whips up nicely, start with a chilled mixing bowl and whisk or an electric mixer.
  2. In the chilled bowl, combine heavy cream, peppermint extract, cocoa powder or chocolate syrup and malted milk powder.
  3. Use the whisk, milk frother or electric mixer to whip the mixture until it reaches a thick and frothy consistency. The foam should be able to hold its shape but remain spoonable.
  4. Once it reaches a defrosted Cool Whip consistency, taste and adjust to your liking.
    • if you want it sweeter you can add a bit of sugar or a sweetener of your choice
    • more minty, add a bit more extract too

Spoon it generously over your cold brew beverage. It will create a delightful layered effect. Can add crushed candy canes to the top too for flare. (I enjoy it with a slice of Peppermint Cake too)

Peppermint Cream Cold Foam

With each sip, you’ll experience your favorite blend of cool peppermint, rich chocolate, and the invigorating the taste of your cup of cool Joe beneath. For this version you are going to need;

Ingredients

  • Milk, 2% is best for consistency
  • Heavy cream to make thick
  • Cocoa powder if you want deeper flavors
  • 2 tbsp malted milk powder comes in chocolate flavored or vanilla

Extract of your choice, mint in this case. This is the easiest way to change things up. Keep the rest the same but change to salted caramel if you like. Homemade vanilla syrup is delicious as another one. Change things up and see which combination is your favorite one.

Variations

During the Fall months you can make chocolate pumpkin cream cold brew cold foam recipe as well!! This duo sounds odd but is pretty yummy. For that one you would need;

How many calories are in peppermint cream cold foam?

There is nutritional information listed below. It will vary slightly depending on the brand of ingredients you use for sure but the basics are below at 200-300 calories depending on how much you use.

When done with your coffee drink recipe pour the chocolate cream cold brew Starbucks copycat fluff on top of your favorite drink and enjoy. If you wanted to add a tropical sorta’ flare just use the recipe below but instead of mint use coconut extract instead!! OMG is that choice wonderful on top of iced coffee.

Can you store sweet cold foam?

Sweet cold foam, like other types of cold foam, can be stored, but it’s important to do so correctly to maintain its texture and flavor. It should be stored in the refrigerator between 32°F to 40°F to keep it fresh. Place it in an airtight container to prevent odors from affecting its taste and aroma. It really is best when it’s freshly made though and will lose its texture and flavor over time. Try to use it within a day or two of preparation for the best results.

How do you keep cold foam thick?

Ensure that all your equipment, including the mixing bowl, whisk, and the milk or cream, is well-chilled. Cold ingredients and utensils help the foam hold its shape. Using heavy cream will make it creamy with a lower fat milk to keep it light and frothy.
