  • 1-3 teaspoons simple syrup or more, to taste

Instructions

  • First, use a butter knife to scrape out the paste from ½ a vanilla bean. 
  • Then, place all of the ingredients for the vanilla sweet cream into a mason jar.

  • Serve as is with any hot coffee or cold brew.
  • To turn this vanilla sweet cream into “foam” use a hand-held frother to froth for 15-30 seconds until foamy.

Notes

  • If you have a Nespresso frother (we do!) make sure to froth the vanilla sweet cream on the cold setting so it doesn’t heat up your sweet cream.
  • Storage: Store vanilla sweet cream in the fridge for up to 5 days.
