hey guys in today's video we're gonna learn how to make dalgona coffee dalgona coffee originates
from South Korea we're gonna be using instant coffee sugar and some water believe me there
are hundreds of variants to this recipe this is just my personal favorite and I definitely
recommend that you experiment and try to find your own personal favourite for the instant
coffee any type is totally fine you just want to make sure that it's the kind that when you
put it in water all you need to do is just stir it and it dissolves some people might refer to
this as freeze-dried coffee and most families have some of it in their pantry this recipe I'm making
today will serve approximately four to six drinks depending on how strong you want your flavor to
be and the best thing about this it refrigerates really really well and we can also stick it in the
freezer all right I'm just gonna measure out 10 grams of the instant coffee and next you'll need
100 grams of sugar I'm using white sugar today there's also recipes with powdered sugar brown
sugar depending on the type of sugar you use it will change the flavor but all of them will
definitely be delicious if you do want to switch to a different type of sugar your measurement
might also be different and last but not least is the water we're going to be using 60 milliliters
I'm just gonna use room-temperature water well we have all our ingredients ready I'm gonna put
in the instant coffee first with the water and I'm gonna mix it in until the instant coffee dissolves
then I'm gonna add the sugar I'm gonna be using a handheld electric mixer but I know that you
could definitely do it with a normal whisk or even like kitchenaid type mixer this one I just
find to be quite useful and it's very light and easy to use I'm gonna start on low and then we'll
work our way up as you can see already it is quite frothy which is great it means that a lot of the
coffee has already dissolved which is exactly what we want next I'm going to add the sugar
this is a really easy recipe to make and it actually only takes a few minutes I'm
actually gonna use a timer on my phone just to see approximately how long it will take
to get to the consistency that we want and at this point I'm gonna have the mixer go to
full speed at about 30 seconds we'll already seen a really nice creamy consistency if you
wanted after 30 seconds just to put it on top of your drink as sort of a mousse this would
be a really great consistency let's continue on at one minute let's see where we're at Wow
it is already getting there again at one minute you can easily put this on any of your drinks
and it would taste really great and it would look really cool and it would float on the
top let's continue on for another 30 seconds to one more minute and see what happens so
at 1 minute and 30 seconds we're getting soft peaks and at 2 minutes let's take a look wow
those are definitely stiff peaks I'm gonna go just one more minute and just see how it comes
out looking good guys so I think at 1 minute 2 minute and 3 minute you're gonna get a wide
variety of different textures and consistencies I guess it just depends on what you want for
yourself and or for your pictures at 3 minutes in this is really really thick I'm gonna stop
here because I don't really need it much thicker than that but I'll probably end up being about the
same if we continued on it's so thick it doesn't even come off all right let's give this dalgona a
try it looks beautiful look at that consistency perfect and frothy to top any drink let's see
how it tastes mmm it's like biting into a soft marshmallow got a really strong coffee flavor and
of course nice and sweet it does kind of remind me of like a coffee flavored marshmallow it's
delicious this is gonna taste amazing on top of a drink let's give it a go so today I'm using soya
milk but it would taste absolutely delicious with dairy milk milk almond milk anything that you want
the thing is when we put this on top of here and you go to stir it in if it's too too high
to the top it's really hard to stir in so I'm filling it just above half and then we'll go
ahead and put the topping on I'm just gonna use two spoons and I'm gonna dollop it on the top
it kind of sits on the top like a marshmallow super cool we can get creative add some Peaks
or we can smooth it out and just for a finishing touch just got a little wafer Daisy right here
pop that on top and voila beautiful got to get my Instagram picture I'm going to put
the Dalgona into the piping bag and pipe it on top so we want to make sure it's as
stiff as possible so I'm just gonna re-whisk it real quick yep that's real stiff so I just got
a normal piping bag with a large opening so let's pipe it in that is awesome I will say
that this definitely adds a really cool look to the coffee I mean we could just get crazy
with this right check that out there it is guys that deserves an Instagram photo
one of the really cool things about this items is it so versatile not only can you
put it on top of drinks you can freeze it you can put it on cakes cupcakes possibilities are
endless why don't you like a fruit parfait or something like that as well I think making a
batch this size is perfect because you can use it now and you can store the rest for
later whether it be in the fridge or the freezer it's 100% vegan and if you don't
want loads and loads of sugar don't worry about just add less hey guys that's my video for the
