A velvety, creamy cold brew float featuring pumpkin spice and a fluffy salted caramel whipped topping, perfect for a festive and refreshing fall treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (240 ml) cold brew coffee
  • 2 tablespoons pumpkin puree (canned pure pumpkin, not pumpkin pie filling)
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin spice mix (blend of cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves)
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) milk or cream (whole milk preferred, almond or oat milk for dairy-free)
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar (or maple syrup as a substitute)
  • 1 cup (240 ml) cold heavy cream (for whipped topping)
  • 3 tablespoons salted caramel sauce (homemade or store-bought)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of sea salt (for sprinkling on whipped cream)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Pumpkin Spice Cold Brew Base: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together cold brew coffee, pumpkin puree, pumpkin spice mix, milk or cream, and granulated sugar until smooth and sugar dissolves (about 2-3 minutes). Taste and adjust pumpkin spice or sugar if desired.
  2. Chill the Mixture: Place the pumpkin spice cold brew base in the fridge for at least 10 minutes to chill and meld flavors.
  3. Make the Salted Caramel Whip: Using a chilled bowl and electric mixer, whip cold heavy cream at medium-high speed until soft peaks form (about 2 minutes). Add salted caramel sauce and vanilla extract, then continue whipping until stiff peaks form (1-2 minutes). Fold in a pinch of sea salt at the end.
  4. Assemble the Float: Pour the chilled pumpkin spice cold brew into a glass, leaving room at the top. Spoon the salted caramel whip generously on top, creating a fluffy mountain. Sprinkle lightly with sea salt.
  5. Serve Immediately: Serve with a straw and long spoon to enjoy the creamy layers together. Keep whipped topping chilled and serve promptly to maintain texture.

Notes

Use cold heavy cream and a chilled bowl for best whipping results. Avoid over-whipping cream to prevent graininess. Chill the cold brew base before assembling. Serve immediately to enjoy the best texture. For dairy-free, substitute coconut cream and plant-based milk. Salted caramel whip can be made ahead and re-whipped before serving.
