Description

Whipped Coffee, also known as Dalgona Coffee, is a trendy and visually appealing drink made by whipping instant coffee, sugar, and hot water into a creamy, fluffy foam and serving it over hot or cold milk. This quick and easy recipe delivers a rich coffee flavor with a smooth, velvety texture that’s perfect for coffee lovers looking to elevate their daily cup.


Ingredients

Scale

Whipped Coffee Mixture

  • 2 tbsp instant coffee
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 2 tbsp hot water
    • Serving

      • Hot or cold milk, as needed

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a medium mixing bowl, add 2 tablespoons of instant coffee, 2 tablespoons of sugar, and 2 tablespoons of hot water. This forms the base of your whipped coffee foam.
  2. Whip the Mixture: Using a hand mixer, immersion blender, or even a spoon, vigorously whip the mixture until it becomes thick, creamy, and light in color, forming stiff peaks. This process typically takes about 3 to 5 minutes.
  3. Prepare the Milk: Pour hot or cold milk into a glass to your desired quantity, usually about 1 cup. The milk serves as the creamy base for the whipped coffee foam.
  4. Layer the Foam: Spoon the whipped coffee mixture gently over the milk, creating a striking contrast between the fluffy coffee foam and the milk below.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Stir the coffee foam into the milk before drinking to combine the rich, sweet whipped coffee with the smooth milk underneath. Enjoy this delicious and visually stunning beverage immediately.

Notes

  • For best results, use instant coffee as it whips up more easily than ground coffee.
  • You can adjust the sugar amount to your taste preference, reducing or increasing sweetness.
  • Try using non-dairy or flavored milk alternatives to customize the taste.
  • Whipping by hand may take longer, but an electric mixer makes the process easier and faster.
  • Serve over ice for a refreshing cold variation during hot weather.
