What is Dalgona Whipped Coffee and how is it made?

Dalgona Coffee (달고나커피) is a recent trend originating in South Korea which has been surfacing all over the Internet to enliven the social distancing movement. It has been making waves on TikTok and Instagram, as it is a fun way of upgrading your regular cupboard ingredients to a delicious frothy Iced latte, in the comfort of your own home!

To signify its texture and appearance, it has named after a popular Korean street snack named Dalgona (honeycomb toffee), which is made of heating brown sugar, corn syrup, and baking soda.

This coffee is delightfully simple to make with only three ingredients: instant coffee powder, sugar, and milk of your choice. I strongly recommend using an electric hand mixer if you have one, but you can also go the manual way of using a whisk for that some extra arm muscle. 💪

I hope this recipe brightens up your week, and please do leave me a comment below or send me a message on Instagram if you have any questions! Enjoy and stay safe everyone!

Ingredients

• 2 tbsp instant coffee
• 2 tbsp sugar
• 2 tbsp hot water
• 1 1/2 cup whole milk substitute with almond or soy milk if preferred
• ice to serve

Instructions

• In a small mixing bowl, add instant coffee, sugar, and hot water in a 1:1:1 ratio, and mix on high with a hand mixer for about 3-4 minutes, until soft peaks form and it reaches a frothy consistency.
• Add ice into a cup and pour milk. Top with the frothy coffee mixture and serve.

Notes

If you do not have an electric mixer at home, please use a whisk to manually whip the mixture for about 6-7 minutes. You will attain the same frothy texture, but with a bonus of extra arm muscle! For a warm latte, please omit the ice and heat up the milk prior to topping the coffee mixture. Feel free to double the recipe while maintaining the 1:1:1 ratio to serve multiple glasses of whipped coffee for your loved ones. ♡
