Ingredients
Scale
Essential Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons instant coffee
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons hot water
Additional Ingredients
- 1 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
- Ice cubes (optional)
- Cocoa powder or cinnamon for dusting (optional)
Instructions
- Combining ingredients in a mixing bowl: Begin by placing 2 tablespoons of instant coffee, 2 tablespoons of sugar, and 2 tablespoons of hot water into a medium mixing bowl. Ensure all ingredients are fully added for an even blend.
- Whipping the mixture to achieve the perfect texture: Using a hand mixer or whisk, whip the coffee mixture for 2 to 5 minutes until it becomes light, fluffy, and holds stiff peaks. Whisking by hand requires more effort but yields the same fluffy consistency necessary for the iconic Dalgona coffee texture.
- Assembling the Dalgona coffee drink: Fill a glass with 1 cup of milk—choose dairy or plant-based depending on your preference—and add ice cubes if desired. Spoon the whipped coffee mixture gently over the milk to create a beautiful layered effect. Optionally, dust the top with cocoa powder or cinnamon. Stir before drinking or enjoy the layers as is.
Notes
- Use hot water to properly dissolve the instant coffee and sugar, cold water will prevent proper whipping.
- Make sure the mixing bowl is clean and free from grease to help create the perfect frothy texture.
- Whipping time is important; stop when stiff peaks form to maintain structure.
- You can adjust coffee strength and sweetness by changing the amount of instant coffee and sugar.
- For dairy-free options, use almond, oat, or soy milk to suit your taste and dietary preferences.
- To store whipped coffee, keep it in a sealed container in the fridge for up to two days and rewhip briefly before serving.
- For flavored variations, add syrups like vanilla, caramel, hazelnut, or seasonal options like pumpkin spice or peppermint in the milk.
