Ingredients
Scale
Whipped Coffee Topping
- 2 tablespoons instant coffee
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons boiling water
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
To Serve
- 2 cups dairy free milk (oat milk recommended for richer texture)
- Ice
Instructions
- Prepare the topping: In a medium bowl, combine the instant coffee, granulated sugar, boiling water, and vanilla extract (if using).
- Whisk the mixture: Using a hand mixer, whisk the ingredients on high speed for 3-4 minutes until the mixture becomes light in color, fluffy, and forms stiff peaks when you lift the beaters.
- Prepare glasses: Fill two mugs or glasses with ice and pour in the dairy-free milk.
- Assemble the coffee: Divide the whipped coffee topping evenly between the two mugs, dolloping it on top of the milk and ice.
- Serve and enjoy: Stir gently to combine whipped coffee and milk, then enjoy your refreshing vegan Dalgona coffee.
Notes
- Whipped coffee can be made ahead and stored briefly, but it’s best enjoyed fresh for maximum fluffiness.
- Oat milk is recommended for a creamier texture, but any dairy-free milk can be used.
- Adjust sugar to taste if you prefer your coffee less sweet.
- Use instant coffee specifically for best whipping results—regular ground coffee will not whip properly.
- For a richer flavor, add vanilla extract optionally.
