If you call LoadIntoBufferAsync on the content, you can guarantee that the content is buffered inside the HttpContent object. The only problem remaining is that reading the stream does not reset the position, so you need to ReadAsStreamAsync and set the stream Position = 0.

My example is very similar to the one Carlos showed...

 private async Task CloneResponseAsync(HttpResponseMessage response)
        {
            var newResponse = new HttpResponseMessage(response.StatusCode);
            var ms = new MemoryStream();

            foreach (var v in response.Headers) newResponse.Headers.TryAddWithoutValidation(v.Key, v.Value);
            if (response.Content != null)
            {
                await response.Content.CopyToAsync(ms).ConfigureAwait(false);
                ms.Position = 0;
                newResponse.Content = new StreamContent(ms);

                foreach (var v in response.Content.Headers) newResponse.Content.Headers.TryAddWithoutValidation(v.Key, v.Value);

            }
            return newResponse;
        }
