The recipe card

Dalgona Whipped Coffee

Instant coffee, sugar, and hot water whipped into a thick foam and spooned over milk.

Approximate time

About 5 minutes

With an electric mixer. Hand whisking the foam takes about 8–10 minutes.

Makes

1 large drink or 2 smaller drinks

Equipment

Mixing bowl · Electric hand mixer or whisk · Serving glass

Ingredients

Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons instant coffee
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons hot water
  • Milk of your choice, enough to fill the glass or glasses with space for the topping
  • Ice cubes (for an iced version)

Method

  1. 1

    Combine instant coffee, sugar, and hot water in a mixing bowl.

  2. 2

    Beat with an electric mixer for about 2–3 minutes, or whisk by hand for 8–10 minutes, until the foam is thick, pale, and holds peaks.

  3. 3

    Fill your glass or glasses with ice and milk, leaving room for the topping. Spoon the whipped coffee foam over the milk.

  4. 4

    Stir the foam into the milk before drinking. Use as much topping as you prefer; divide the batch between two glasses for a milder drink.

A few good-to-knows

  • Use instant coffee, not ground coffee or brewed espresso.
  • This is a concentrated coffee topping. Caffeine varies by instant-coffee brand and how much foam you use.
