Staying at home is indeed a bummer for all of us, but this will not keep us from enjoying something new. And as many people are now getting hooked online and to TikTok, in which I am also addicted to watching and making videos. And one of the most talked about item on that platform is the creation of what they call Dalgona Coffee.It was on these platforms that I got curious on how they are made and looking on how nice they look in pictures made me want to also try it for myself. This is also a great way to try my skills in making a new beverage.
Some say that Dalgona Coffee originated in India, Pakistan or Macau. But whichever country it came from, how it is made is what makes it very enjoyable. And despite the scarcity of ingredients, this can be done with just very basic items which are:
- 2 tablespoons of instant coffee
- 2 tablespoons of sugar
- 2 tablespoons of hot water
- milk
- ice cubes
- toppings (optional)
And it also takes a few simple steps in making it:
- In a bowl, combine instant coffee, sugar, and hot water
- Using a whisker or electronic mixer, mix and whip the mixture for around 5-10 minutes until it forms a thick froth like whipped cream*
- Next is to get a glass and fill it with milk an ice cubes up to a certain height
- Fill the remaining space with the froth mixture
- You can now put toppings on it like chocolate syrup and grated chocolate
*Do note that if ingredients are not of equal portions, the mixture may not come as whipped as expected. Also hand mixing maybe tiring after a few minutes but once it becomes thick it is indeed worth it.
See, it's very easy and almost everyone, even kids can make this in less than 15 minutes. Also it can also be a great time when made with family and loved ones. So let's beat boredom and get our coffee fix at the same time.
