Recipe: Dalgona Coffee

If you’ve spent any time scrolling down Instagram or on Tik Tok recently, there’s no way you’ve missed the sensational sight of #DalgonaCoffee – the frothy, three-ingredient iced-coffee that’s all anybody can sip on right now!

Inspired by the South Korean dalgona candy (a toffee sponge), this viral wonder is set apart by its distinctive dollop of whipped coffee foam sitting prettily atop a glass of cold milk. Of course in India, we’ve always been partial to such frothy, generously well-sweetened coffee (also known as “pheti hui” coffee)!

  • Vegans could always substitute milk with non-dairy alternatives (oat or almond mylk would be my top picks!); while non-coffee drinkers can also join in the party by swapping the instant coffee with matcha or cocoa powder.
