Ingredients
Scale
Coffee Foam
- 2 tablespoons Instant Coffee
- 2 tablespoons Granulated Sugar
- 2 tablespoons Water
Beverage
- Unsweetened Soy Milk, to taste
- Ice, as needed
- 1 Orange (for zest)
- Ground Cinnamon, to taste
- Ground Cardamom, to taste (optional)
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a medium bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons instant coffee, 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, and 2 tablespoons water until well combined.
- Whip Coffee Mixture: Using a hand mixer, whip the mixture until it becomes thick, frothy, and holds stiff peaks, forming a golden foam. Alternatively, whisk vigorously by hand, though this may take up to 20 minutes.
- Prepare Glass: Fill a tall glass with ice cubes and pour unsweetened soy milk to taste.
- Assemble Drink: Spoon the whipped coffee foam gently over the top of the iced soy milk.
- Garnish and Flavor: Sprinkle ground cinnamon on top for warmth. For additional flavor, add a pinch of ground cardamom and zest about 1 teaspoon of orange peel over the foam. Stir gently before drinking. Enjoy your refreshing vegan dalgona coffee!
Notes
- You can adjust the sweetness by varying the sugar amount.
- For a thicker foam, ensure to whip the coffee mixture sufficiently until it holds peaks.
- Use cold soy milk and plenty of ice for the best refreshing effect.
- Adding orange zest and cardamom adds a lovely citrus-spice dimension but can be omitted if preferred.
- Whisking by hand is possible but requires time and effort compared to an electric mixer.
