As soon as I saw the video, I realized that I have seen many videos of this recipes.a we can make frothy coffee in our house.


A very simple frothy coffee that can be made at the comfort of your house. This is called a Dalgona coffee. Mix together the coffee powder, sugar and hot water. Blend well using a blender or a frother for the milk and ta da it's ready Scoop and add in a cup of hot/ cold milk. I added the froth in hot milk and enjoyed a nice warm coffee.


Dalgona Coffee is a cold latte drink with a velvety coffee foam. It's a perfect drink for those who miss the coffee shops especially during this time.
I am seeing a lot of instagramers posting this whipped coffee recipe. This has gone viral as most of the people are trying and flooding the internet with the pictures of this coffee. As this is an easy recipe to prepare this doesn't take much time to prepare. Instead of your evening tea/ coffee you can have this one day. Hope you all try this out and let me know how it turned....



Ingredients:

  1. Instant Coffee Powder- 2 tbsp
  2. Sugar- 2 tbsp
  3. Hot Water- 2 tbsp

Method:

  1. In a glass bowl add the instant coffee, sugar and hot water. Blend using a electric/ hand blender for about 5- 10 minutes. You can also whisk with hand, but it will take little bit more time than the electric blender.
  2. I made stiff peaks. Pour milk in two glasses and top it with the foamy coffee mixture and enjoy sipping hot/ cold.
