How to Make the Best Dalgona Coffee?

Dalgona coffee took the world by storm during the pandemic, becoming a viral sensation on social media. This whipped coffee drink, originating from South Korea, is as delightful to make as it is to drink. With its creamy, frothy top and rich coffee flavor, Dalgona coffee is an indulgence that’s surprisingly easy to create at home. In this blog, we'll guide you through the steps to make the best Dalgona coffee, and we’ll introduce you to India Flavour's premium coffee collection that can elevate this trendy drink to new heights.

What is Dalgona Coffee?

Dalgona coffee, also known as whipped coffee, is made by beating together instant coffee, sugar, and hot water until it becomes light and frothy. This whipped mixture is then spooned over a glass of cold or warm milk. It creates a striking contrast between the fluffy coffee and the smooth milk. The result is a visually appealing and deliciously creamy coffee treat.

Ingredients You’ll Need

To make the best Dalgona coffee, you’ll need just a few simple ingredients:

• Two tablespoons of India Flavour Coffee Powder
• For a rich and robust flavor, use India Flavour’s premium instant coffee. It is made from high-quality coffee beans sourced from India’s finest coffee plantations.
• Two tablespoons of sugar
• Granulated sugar works best for perfect consistency, but you can also use brown sugar for a caramelized flavor.
• Two tablespoons of hot water
• Use freshly boiled water to dissolve the coffee and sugar quickly.
• 1 cup of milk
• You can use any type of milk—whole, skim, almond, or oat—depending on your preference.
• Ice cubes (optional)
• If you prefer your Dalgona coffee cold, add a few ice cubes to your glass.

Step-by-Step Guide to Making Dalgona Coffee

Now that you have the ingredients ready, let’s dive into making the best Dalgona coffee.

Step 1: Whip the Coffee Mixture

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the instant coffee, sugar, and hot water. Using a hand whisk, electric mixer, or even a frother, whip the mixture vigorously until it becomes thick and frothy. This process usually takes about 3-5 minutes with an electric mixer, but if you’re whisking by hand, it may take a bit longer. You know it’s ready when the mixture forms stiff peaks, similar to whipped cream.

Step 2: Prepare the Milk

While the coffee mixture is being whipped, prepare your glass of milk. For a cold version, fill your glass with ice cubes and then pour in the milk. If you prefer it warm, heat the milk in a saucepan or microwave until it reaches your desired temperature.

Step 3: Assemble the Dalgona Coffee

Once the coffee mixture is whipped to perfection, it’s time to assemble your Dalgona coffee. Spoon the whipped coffee over the milk, allowing it to float on top. You can use a spoon or spatula to smooth out the top and create that signature fluffy layer.

Step 4: Serve and Enjoy

Your Dalgona coffee is now ready to be enjoyed! You can leave it as is for a striking visual effect, or mix the coffee into the milk for a more balanced flavor. Either way, the first sip will reveal the creamy texture and bold taste that makes Dalgona coffee so irresistible.
