Vanilla Dalgona Coffee Recipe

We recently found out about dalgona coffee, which became very popular in South Korea and went viral on the internet. 

This whipped coffee consists of only a few basic ingredients, and you’ll be enjoying your drink in just a matter of minutes.

We liked the traditional dalgona coffee so much that we wanted to play around and create some variations to the original recipe.

Tips for a Perfect Dalgona Coffee

  • On a hot summer day, using cold milk for this drink makes it an ideal refreshment. You can use hot milk on a chilly evening too!
  • Feel free to use decaf if you’re sensitive to caffeine. It will still taste amazing.
  • This drink is really photogenic, so serving it in a transparent glass or mug will make it look perfect.
  • You can store the whipped coffee in the fridge for a couple of hours before using it.

Vanilla Dalgona Coffee Ingredients

Like we mentioned before, this dalgona whipped coffee consists of only a few basic ingredients. We’ve listed the ingredients for one cup of coffee below, so you can easily double everything if you’re making 2!

Please note that the amount of milk depends on the size of your mug.

  • 2 tablespoons instant coffee
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 4 tablespoons hot water
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • Milk of choice

How to Make Vanilla Dalgona Coffee

We advise you to grab a large bowl to whip the coffee because we don’t want the beautiful foam flying through your kitchen! 

Place the instant coffee, brown sugar, and water in the bowl and mix with an electric hand mixer for about 4-5 minutes until the mixture becomes foamlike. 

You can also whisk it by hand, but we do not recommend this as it requires quite some effort. 

Now, fill a mug with milk and add the vanilla extract to the milk, stir it well, and place the whipped dalgona coffee on top.  Whether you use hot or cold milk is up to you. 

Finally, stir everything well and make sure the dalgona coffee has thoroughly mixed with the vanilla milk. 

Enjoy your vanilla drink!
