Dalgona Coffee

Dalgona Coffee is a whipped coffee beverage made by vigorously mixing instant coffee, sugar, and hot water until frothy, then served over milk. The creamy, airy coffee topping contrasts with the smooth milk base for a sweet and textured drink that can be enjoyed hot or cold, with ice added as desired.

Ingredients

  • 2 Tablespoons instant coffee
  • 2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons water boiling
  • milk
  • ice optional

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a small bowl combine the instant coffee, granulated sugar and boiling water.
  2. Using an electric mixer, mix on medium speed until the mixture doubles in volume and forms a soft peak.
  3. 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.
