Instructions

  1. Step 1: Combine instant coffee, sugar, and hot water in a deep bowl.

    What to look for: All ingredients dissolved, dark brown liquid

    Watch out: Must use instant coffee - ground coffee won't whip; Water must be hot for dissolving

  2. Step 2: Whisk vigorously for 3-5 minutes (hand whisk) or 2 minutes (electric) until thick and creamy.

    What to look for: Light caramel color, thick enough to hold peaks like whipped cream

    Watch out: Under-whipping = runny topping that sinks; Electric mixer makes this much easier

  3. Step 3: Fill a glass with ice and pour in cold milk.

    What to look for: Glass about 3/4 full of milk with ice

    Watch out: Too little milk makes it too strong; Milk should be cold for contrast

  4. Step 4: Dollop whipped coffee on top. Swirl gently or leave fluffy. Stir before drinking.

    What to look for: Fluffy cloud sitting on top of milk, two distinct layers

    Watch out: Sinks if coffee wasn't whipped enough; Stir to combine before drinking or it's very bitter on top
