Coffee Recipes - Dalgona Coffee

I have a sweet tooth so in order to enjoy my coffee with some dessert, I do prefer it dark and sugarless.

Coffee shop menus are really tempting but what they offer is usually too sweet and creamy for me.

I'm not a frequent visitor to coffee shops so if I do go to a coffee shop I either order something new and beautiful for pretty shots or go for my favorite black Coffee or Espresso.

However, it's been a while a Korean whipped coffee drink called  Dalgona Coffee has been trending on social media and I was too curious not to try it. 

It's super easy to make at home, tastes really delish, will be a perfect thing to offer your guests on hot summer days. 
It can be served both hot and cold. I tried the cold version and I already know that I like it more.


Dalgona Coffee

Ingredients

Equal amounts of  instant coffee, sugar and boiling water 
( I used 3 tablespoons for 2 glasses)
milk of your preference
Irish Cream or Baileys (optional)
Cognac (optional)


Dalgona Coffee


Directions

Whip the coffee, sugar and hot water with a mixer until the mixture becomes light brown, smooth and creamy.
You can whisk them in a narrow bowl but it will take you much longer time and more physical efforts.

Fill the glass with the milk of your preference (hot or cold).
I used my favorite unsweetened almond milk. You can even add ice. 

Add approximately a tablespoon of Irish Cream or Baileys and half a tablespoon of Cognac. 

Pour the frothy coffee mixture on top of the milk and voila, enjoy your Dalgona Coffee while stirring it with a straw or a spoon.

Optional Toppings 

cocoa powder, coffee powder, cinnamon, crumbled biscuits, honey

I want to thank Nanik from Chef Monkey for sharing her recipe and inspiring me to give it a try. The liquor and the cognac really made it taste special.

  2. What a great idea. I have never tried instant coffee, but in this recipe it sure sounds good. I like the idea of whipping it up.

    I would modify mine a bit, as I love Caroline's cream liquor. YUMMY!
    I will also probably like it more cold, as I love iced coffee. Thanks for the recipe and the blog is great.
