Quick Guide to the Latest Coffee Craze

If you've spent more than 5 minutes on social media in the last few months, it's likely that you've heard of the latest coffee craze - whipped coffee.

Also known as dalgona coffee, this caffeinated treat originated in South Korea and became a viral hit on TikTok.

The best part is, you only need 5 ingredients and a few minutes to whip up your own glass of this cool, creamy beverage.

Ingredients (one serving):

• 1 tbsp hot water
• 1 tbsp white sugar
• 1 tbsp instant coffee
• milk
• ice cubes

In a small jar, whisk equal parts hot water, white sugar, and instant coffee until the mixture starts to form stiff peaks (comparable to whipped cream).

An electric beater or a small milk frother works best, but you can whip the mixture with a hand whisk as well.

Fill your tumbler with ice and cold milk, pour the whipped coffee mixture on top, and ENJOY!

TIP: If super sweet isn't your thing, try cutting the sugar down by half!
