Description
Whipped Coffee, also known as Vegan Dalgona Coffee, is a creamy and frothy coffee drink made by whipping instant coffee, sugar, and boiling water into a light and fluffy foam, then served over chilled dairy-free milk. This vegan-friendly, iced coffee treat is quick to prepare and perfect for a refreshing pick-me-up.
Ingredients
Scale
Whipped Coffee Topping
- 2 tablespoons instant coffee
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons boiling water
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Base
- 2 cups dairy free milk (oat milk for richer, thicker texture)
- Ice (as needed)
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a medium bowl, add the instant coffee, granulated sugar, boiling water, and vanilla extract if using. This forms the base for the whipped coffee topping.
- Whisk to Froth: Using a hand mixer, whisk the mixture on medium to high speed for 3 to 4 minutes until it lightens in color and becomes fluffy. The whipped coffee should form stiff peaks when you lift the beaters.
- Prepare the Glasses: Fill two mugs or tall glasses with ice cubes and pour 1 cup of dairy free milk into each.
- Top and Serve: Divide the whipped coffee topping evenly between the two glasses, dolloping it over the milk and ice. Stir gently to combine if desired, then enjoy your refreshing vegan dalgona coffee.
Notes
- For a richer and creamier drink, use oat milk as the dairy-free milk base.
- If you prefer a sweeter coffee, increase the sugar slightly to taste.
- The whipped topping holds best if consumed shortly after whisking, as it may lose volume over time.
- To make the drink hot instead of iced, use warmed dairy-free milk and omit the ice cubes.
- Using instant coffee is essential; regular ground coffee will not whip properly.
