This creamy and delicious Dalgona coffee has taken over Instagram and is the new quarantine sensation. Easy to make, this super creamy and frothy coffee has gained a lot of attention during the coronavirus lockdown. It takes 5 mins to make and is the best new version to regular coffee

What is Dalgona Coffee?

According to Wikipedia, Dalgona Coffee is a beverage made by whipping equal proportions of instant coffee powder, sugar, and hot water until it becomes creamy and frothy. It’s then added to cold or hot milk.

The viral trend of sharing recipes and photos of the DIY coffee first gained prominence during the social distancing orders in South Korea and for that reason, it is dubbed as the ‘quarantine drink’ or ‘quarantine coffee’

How To make Dalgona Coffee?

It is a 5-minute recipe made using 4 basic ingredients – Instant Coffee, Sugar, Water and Milk. So, all that needs to be done is

Whip up

Coffee powder, sugar, and hot water until creamy and frothy. This can be done using a hand whisk but is super quick when done with an electric beater

Top it up

onto some chilled or hot milk (your choice) The fluffy and light coffee mixture should float over the milk

Sprinkle

Coffee powder or cocoa powder over the coffee. Enjoy !!

Ingredients to make Dalgona Coffee?

Coffee Powder

Firstly, it’s best to use instant coffee powder. Any brand would work. I just use locally available brands. During quarantine, you just use what’s available with no much drama

Sugar

You can use regular breakfast sugar or granulated sugar. Moreover, Dalgona coffee is made using equal portions of coffee powder, sugar, and water, however, some of you may find this a bit bitter, so, to make it better just add another tablespoon of sugar

Water

Most importantly, use hot or warm water to blend the coffee powder and sugar together. Warm water helps to melt the sugar and also yields a smooth and creamy fluffy mixture

Milk

Lastly, any milk of your choice is perfect for this recipe. Full-fat, skimmed milk or simply non-dairy milk. All of it sounds perfect. Moreover, you can have it hot or cold, I leave it to you
