Tips for the Perfect Dalgona Coffee
-
Ratio magic: Keep the coffee, sugar, and hot water at a 1:1:1 ratio for best results.
-
Hand whisk workout: You can whisk by hand, but be prepared for an arm workout! An electric mixer gets you there much faster.
-
Experiment with flavors: Add a pinch of cinnamon, cocoa powder, or vanilla extract for a twist.
-
For less sweetness: Reduce the sugar to 1 tablespoon, but note that sugar helps stabilize the foam.
The Origin of Dalgona Coffee
The drink’s name comes from “dalgona,” a Korean honeycomb toffee candy with a similar caramel-like flavor. It became internationally famous after a Korean actor mentioned it on TV, comparing the whipped coffee foam to the nostalgic sweet.
Enjoy your frothy masterpiece — whether you sip it slowly or gulp it down in coffee bliss, this is a drink that makes mornings (or afternoons) feel just a little more special.
If you want, I can also give you a short, viral-style version of this recipe for social media posts that matches the fun style of your picture. Would you like me to make that next?
