With just a few simple ingredients and a bit of effort, you can make a rich, creamy, and sweet vanilla sweet cream that's sure to impress your friends and family—whether it's for your next coffee drink or dessert topping.

Ingredients

1 cup (240ml) heavy cream (or whipping cream) 1 cup (240ml) milk (use whole milk or a milk alternative if preferred) 1/4 cup (60ml) vanilla syrup (store-bought or homemade)

Instructions

Here's a simple recipe to make your vanilla sweet cream:

Combine Ingredients: In a mixing bowl or a jar, combine the heavy cream, milk, and vanilla syrup.

Whisk or Shake: If using a bowl, whisk the mixture until well combined. If using a jar, seal it and shake vigorously until mixed.

Chill: Refrigerate the sweet cream for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serving it cold will enhance the overall experience.

Serve: Use the vanilla sweet cream to top your favorite coffee drinks, cold brews, or iced coffees. It can also be drizzled over desserts to add a touch of sweetness and creaminess.

Tips

Adjust Sweetness: If you prefer a sweeter or less sweet cream, adjust the amount of vanilla syrup to your taste.

Homemade Vanilla Syrup: To make your own vanilla syrup, combine equal parts sugar and water in a saucepan. Heat until the sugar dissolves, then stir in a splash of vanilla extract.

Making the Vanilla Sweet Cream

Here's a step-by-step guide to creating your vanilla sweet cream in a 2-liter pitcher:

Pour heavy cream to the 1.25-liter line in the 2-liter pitcher.

Pour 350 ml of vanilla syrup into a separate container and pour it into the 2-liter pitcher.

Pour 600 ml of milk to the 2L line of the pitcher and stir the mixture together.

To make the foam, use an immersion blender to mix the mixture until it thickens. This will give your vanilla sweet cream a creamy and frothy texture.
