The Classic Dalgona Coffee is made with equal parts of white sugar, instant coffee and hot water. This mixture is then whipped vigorously with a whisk to form a dense foam (yep, time to workout). You can use a hand mixer alternatively if you want to save time and effort.
Once a dense foam is formed, it is poured gently over a cup of warm milk.

Instructions
- Combine instant coffee, sugar and hot water in a mixing bowl. Mix them well. Then using a handheld mixer (stand mixer or milk frother) whisk it on high speed until the coffee mixture forms a stiff peak (2-4 mins).If you don�t have any of these tools, you can whisk it manually by hand. It still works! Just whisk it about 400 times.
- Add the ice cubes in a mug then pour over the milk. Scoop out the whipped coffee on top of the milk. Serve.
Notes
- 1 Tbsp = 15 ml
- �I haven�t tried other forms of coffee (such as freshly ground coffee etc.) with this recipe. But many who tried these types of coffee commented that they don�t work as well as instant coffee. They simply don�t get the same creamy status.
