⅓ cup half & half, 1 tablespoon vanilla syrup, 1 tablespoon pumpkin sauce
Place French press lid and move the plunger up and down 40 times to make cold foam.
The cold foam will double in size in the French press.
Put vanilla syrup, cold brew, and ice into a cup. Top drink with cold foam and a dusting of pumpkin spice.
1 tablespoon vanilla syrup, ¾ cup cold brew coffee, 1 cup ice, ¼ teaspoon pumpkin spice

If you're making your own cold brew, give yourself enough time since it'll take at least 12 hours. The cold brew can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.
Instead of buying vanilla syrup, make it at home! It only takes 3 ingredients (sugar, water, and vanilla extract) and 5 minutes. Make a batch ahead of time and use to to flavor and sweeten drinks, cold foams, and whipped cream.
Cold brew is a concentrated coffee that's typically stronger than regular brewed coffee. If the coffee is too strong, just add cold water to dilute it.
