Make a cafe-style Strawberry Cream Cold Brew at home using a simple strawberry syrup and thick cold foam topping.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup strong cold brew coffee concentrate
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen strawberries, halved
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1/4 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 2 tablespoons strawberry syrup (from above)
  • Ice cubes

Instructions

  1. Make the strawberry syrup: Combine water, sugar, and strawberries in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Reduce heat and cook for 10 minutes until strawberries soften. Mash the berries slightly. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve, pressing on the solids to extract liquid. Discard solids. Stir vanilla extract into the syrup. Let cool completely.
  2. Prepare the cold brew base: Mix the cold brew concentrate with 1/2 cup of cold water.
  3. Make the cold foam: Combine heavy whipping cream and milk in a chilled bowl. Using an electric mixer or a handheld frother, whip until soft peaks form. Gently fold in 2 tablespoons of the cooled strawberry syrup.
  4. Assemble the drink: Fill a tall glass with ice. Pour the prepared cold brew mixture over the ice.
  5. Layer the drink: Drizzle 2 tablespoons of the remaining strawberry syrup down the inside of the glass.
  6. Top the cold brew with the strawberry cold foam. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • If you do not have cold brew concentrate, use 1 cup of strongly brewed chilled coffee instead.
  • For a thicker foam, use only heavy cream and add a small amount of powdered sugar to the whipping mixture.
  • You can substitute maple syrup for granulated sugar in the strawberry syrup for a different flavor profile.
