Ingredients
 

  • 2 tablespoons Instant coffee
  • 2 tablespoons Sugar
  • 2 tablespoons Hot water
  • 1 Tablespoon cocoa powder
  • ½ cup 120ml Milk of your choice, cold or hot
  • 2-3 Ice cubes if you making cold coffee

Instructions
 

  • DIRECTIONS
    1. In a large mixing bowl place coffee, sugar and hot water (1:1:1 ratio).
    2. Using a hand mixer or electric mixer, whisk until thick and creamy. When its thick and creamy add cocoa powder and keep whisking until combined and thick, and creamy.
    3. Fill only 3/4 of a cup with cold milk and add ice cubes.
    4. Top with foamy whipped coffee, grate some dark chocolat. Mix well before drink. Enjoy!
    Notes:
    • Do I have to use sugar? The sugar helps the coffee whip to a fluffy and stable texture that holds its shape for a while. You can reduce sugar amount, but I’m not sure it will be so fluffy. If you’re really sensitive to sugar, you can reduce it down, just know that your coffee won’t be as fluffy.
    • What kind of milk to use: You can use cow’s milk, dairy free milk such as almond milk, oat milk or any other kind of milk that you prefer.
    • Cold or hot milk? For this recipe you can use cold or hot milk, they both taste great. If you are using cold milk, add few ice cubes.
    • Can I make Dalgona coffee without electric mixer? Yes, you can whip the coffee using a regular whisk, it may take a little bit more time, but it absolutely possible.

    1. I have used Folgers regular Instant, but it has too smoky a flavor for me. Many people choose Nescafe, Nescafe Gold, or a store brand, but my favorite has been Medaglia D’Oro Espresso Instant Coffee. Very stout and powerful coffee flavor(I enjoy bold, dark coffee!!) and it whips great!! I have also used Folgers Decaf when I want a treat in the evening! It whips great too!! Happy sipping!!

    1. You have to mix it for a really long time if you are using a whisk.
      And don’t lose hope..
      Because same thing happened to me
      If you have a mixer grinder then use it(because I tried) and then give it a whisk for like more than 15 min or even more,but don’t get disappointed
      So… Best of luck😀😀

    2. There are recipes that use whipping cream if you are looking for just a chocolate version (no coffee) of the whip. There are also versions that use chocolate milk drink mix (like Nesquik powder) to make the whip. I have not tried them but I know the recipes are out there!! Happy sipping!!
