Equipment

  • Small jar with a tight lid
  • Handheld frother (optional)
  • Spoon or whisk

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup low-fat milk 1% or 2%
  • 1 tablespoon non-fat Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon monk fruit sweetener or honey/maple syrup

Optional Flavor Boosters:

  • Tiny pinch of cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon pumpkin puree
  • 1/8 teaspoon almond extract
  • 1 scoop collagen peptides

Instructions

  • Ensure all ingredients are cold from the fridge.
  • Combine milk, Greek yogurt, vanilla extract, and sweetener in a small jar.
  • Seal the jar tightly and shake vigorously for about 1 minute until thickened.
  • For extra froth, use a handheld frother for 30-45 seconds, keeping it near the top of the liquid.
  • If using flavor add-ins like pumpkin puree, gently fold them in now.
  • Spoon the foam over your coffee or cold brew and enjoy!

Notes

Dairy-free option: Use oat milk or barista almond milk for the best froth.
No frother? Shake longer in the jar, use a blender on pulse, or whisk vigorously.
Store extra foam in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Shake or froth again before using.
