About Dalgona Coffee
Dalgona Coffee is a beverage made by adding cold or hot milk to a serving glass and topping it with whipped coffee cream made using equal proportions of instant coffee, sugar and hot water. The coffee sugar water mixture is whipped until it becomes thick, fluffy and creamy.
Dalgona Coffee was originated from Korea and its spreading across the world and it is actually very trending. Now more versions of Dalgona Coffee like mocha, white chocolate, rose and many more have been trending in social media.
Dalgona is the name of the South Korean honeycomb toffee candy. Dalgona Coffee gets its name from the fluffy, toffee-like texture of the whipped coffee cream coffee. While most dalgona coffee doesn't actually use the candy, a particular South Korean cafe actually combines dalgona with milk tea or coffee.
Mittu is fond of this so I make a small batch of whipped cream and store in fridge. Whenever she feels like having a dessert she mixes with chilled milk and enjoys it. She is a coffee lover and no wonder this dalgona coffee is her favourite.

This was excellent, thank you! It's so easy and lovely as well. My entire family enjoyed it. I will definitely be making it on a regular basis. I used decaf coffee, vanilla soy milk for 3 of them and vanilla almond milk for my husband. I think next time I'll double the coffee cream unless I buy smaller glasses, but my husband says he liked the size of his mason jar mug, lol!
