Description
A frothy, sweet-tart topping for iced beverages combining whipped dairy and fresh strawberry flavor. Perfect for enhancing coffee, tea, or desserts with a luxurious pourable foam. Light enough to balance bold drinks yet rich enough to satisfy sugary cravings.
Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp heavy cream (cold)
- 2 Tbsp non-dairy milk (e.g. nonfat fairlife)
- 1 Tbsp strawberry jam (preserves preferred)
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch fine salt (optional)
Instructions
- Chill all ingredients for 10-15 minutes before use
- Combine cream, milk, jam, vanilla, and salt in a sealed glass jar or frother bowl
- Churn using a milk frother or shake vigorously for 30-45 seconds
- Check consistency: should hold a spoon curl test but remain pourable
- Spoon foam over 8-12 oz iced beverage
- Create visual peaks using a spoon for presentation
- Consume within 10 minutes for best texture
Notes
- Nonfat dairy adds lightness without compromising stability
- Use high-quality vanilla paste for deeper flavor
- Preserve foam structure by keeping at refrigerator temperature
- Churn speed is key – overmixing creates butter instead of foam
- Works best with chilled base beverages
