One thing I look forward to every holiday season is a delicious and rich homemade Eggnog Latte, but the other day I had the idea to make a Salted Eggnog Cold Foam, and my life will officially never be the same! You only need three ingredients and about two minutes of your time, and you’ll have the most creamy, rich, luxurious topping for your holiday coffees and teas. Let’s talk about the ingredients you’ll need.

Salted Eggnog Cold Foam Ingredients:

Eggnog: Yes, we’re using actual eggnog for the cold foam. Eggnog itself is naturally high in fat, so it makes a perfect cold foam texture when you froth it up using a handheld milk frother. Most stores carry dairy free eggnog options which are great if you are dairy free but still want to enjoy this Salted Eggnog Cold Foam.

Flaky Sea Salt: The salt is what makes this cold foam a Salted Eggnog flavor. It helps cut the richness of the eggnog while also bringing out the sweetness!

Vanilla Syrup: The vanilla syrup is an optional ingredient, but I feel like it gives the Salted Eggnog Cold Foam the perfect amount of sweetness, while still staying true to the delicious, creamy, and salty flavor that you’d want in a Salted Eggnog Cold Foam. Feel free to use any flavored syrup you’d like, or skip the syrup altogether. Just salt and eggnog together make a great tasting cold foam that contrasts beautifully with a sweeter beverage like a Starbucks Sugar Cookie Latte or an Iced White Mocha, but if you want a little bit extra sweetness in your cold foam, add a small amount of vanilla syrup!
