Iced tea with salted caramel cold foam sipdown (215)

The cold foam really highlighted the caramel element here and of course boosted the creaminess to sell custard. Otherwise, the rooibos in this unsettled me as it seemed to be strong in scent. I’m glad it didn’t come through strongly in taste. I don’t know if I would have liked this without the cold foam but with it, it was a lovely way to send this off.

Made this iced and topped it with a white chocolate cold foam. It is delicious. A candy cane and white chocolate cold foam really is the perfect Christmas drink for those celebrating Christmas in July…or in my case, June. Just a classic Christmas flavor profile but cold and refreshing.

Made this earlier and I didn’t pay super close attention but remember chocolate.

After my failed teapop, I went with something I knew I liked – this tea, iced, with white chocolate cold foam.

Made this as a teapop and there was just a strong bitter/astringent note that I dumped it. I was sad

Topped this with strawberry white chocolate cold foam. It was good but next time I’ll try a strawberry vanilla cold foam to better reflect the flavours of the tea.

This was ok. It was one of the better ways to have this tea but one of the less tasty cold foam drinks I made lately. A good way to finish this blend which was always nice but slightly disappointing as the black base came through more than I would have liked.

Yesterday I was talking to Roswell Strange about the fancy cold foam drinks I’ve been making. They’ve all been so good and I asked what she recommended I try next. My cold foam flavor options are: white chocolate, toasted marshmallow, vanilla, salted caramel, gingerbread, cinnamon brown sugar, and strawberry. Roswell suggested white chocolate and something minty and this tea came to mind immediately. It was honestly so good that I made it again today. So decadent but refreshing thanks to the mint. Yum!
