frothiness
Airy bubble presence
Frothiness is the quality of being frothy—full of foam or bubbles.
Beer has frothiness; so does a cappuccino.
The word extends to anything light and insubstantial: the frothiness of summer rom-coms, market frothiness suggesting prices inflated beyond fundamentals.
The tone is usually dismissive, implying lack of depth or seriousness.
