Dalgona Coffee
Description
This Dalgona Coffee recipe starts by combining equal parts instant coffee, granulated sugar, and boiling water, which are whipped with an electric mixer until the mixture doubles in volume and forms soft peaks. The fluffy coffee foam is then spooned over a glass of hot or cold milk, optionally with ice, creating a layered drink featuring a creamy, slightly bitter coffee foam atop milk.
The drink offers a distinctive texture contrast and sweetness balanced by the robust flavor of instant coffee. It can be served warm for a comforting beverage or chilled with ice for refreshment. The whipped portion should be stirred into the milk before drinking to blend flavors.
Alternatives for whipping include using an immersion blender or milk frother if an electric mixer is unavailable, though hand whisking requires more effort. The recipe suggests using Nescafe Classic instant coffee but notes decaf instant coffee also works. It can be scaled up by maintaining the ratio of ingredients for larger servings.
Ingredients
- 2 Tablespoons instant coffee
- 2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 Tablespoons water boiling
- milk
- ice optional
Instructions
- In a small bowl combine the instant coffee, granulated sugar and boiling water.
- Using an electric mixer, mix on medium speed until the mixture doubles in volume and forms a soft peak.
- Fill a glass with hot or cold milk and top with the frothy coffee mixture. Serve immediately. Stir whipped coffee with the milk before drinking.
Notes
- If lacking an electric mixer, use an immersion blender or milk frother for whipping; hand whisking works but takes longer.
- Nescafe Classic instant coffee is preferred, but decaf instant coffee can also be used.
- Serve the coffee foam over either hot or cold milk; add ice for a cool, refreshing drink.
- The whipped coffee should be stirred into the milk before drinking for balanced flavor.
- Ingredient ratios can be doubled or tripled to make more servings while keeping the same proportions.
