A creamy, frothy Korean Dalgona whipped coffee with iced milk that is easy to make and perfect for a refreshing coffee treat any time of day.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons instant coffee powder (about 10 g)
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar (about 25 g)
  • 2 tablespoons hot water (about 1 fl oz or 30 ml)
  • 1 cup cold milk of choice (240 ml) – whole milk, oat, almond, or soy milk
  • Ice cubes, a handful
  • Optional: pinch of cinnamon or cocoa powder to sprinkle on top
  • Optional: a drop of vanilla extract in the milk

Instructions

  1. Combine 2 tablespoons instant coffee powder, 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, and 2 tablespoons hot water in a mixing bowl. The water should be just off boiling to dissolve the coffee and sugar fully.
  2. Whip the mixture using a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium-high speed for 3-5 minutes until it triples in volume and forms stiff peaks. If whisking by hand, whisk vigorously for 8-10 minutes until thick and fluffy.
  3. Fill a tall glass with a handful of ice cubes and pour 1 cup of cold milk of your choice over the ice.
  4. Spoon the whipped coffee mixture gently on top of the milk, swirling with the back of a spoon if desired.
  5. Serve immediately with a straw or long spoon to mix the whipped coffee topping into the milk as you drink.

Notes

Use instant coffee powder for best results; ground coffee or espresso will not whip properly. If whisking by hand, take breaks to avoid arm fatigue. Use cold milk and plenty of ice for a refreshing drink. For a dairy-free option, use oat, almond, or soy milk. Optional additions include cinnamon, cocoa powder, or vanilla extract for extra flavor.
