Dalgona coffee has emerged as one of the biggest food trends of the COVID-19 pandemic. It is an ambrosial beverage that involves milk topped with a creamy foam made with coffee and sugar-somewhat like a reverse cappuccino. The frothy, whipped coffee is made by vigorously mixing instant coffee and sugar, and it’s now unavoidable on basically all social media platforms.

However, not many people know that Dalgona in Korean, means “honeycomb toffee”. The best part is, it’s relatively easy to whip up in your own kitchen.

To make it, simply mix together equal parts of hot water, sugar, and instant coffee powder in a bowl-about two tablespoons each should do for one serving. Using a stand mixer, hand mixer, or a whisk (what better way to get some physical activity in your day, really), whip it until it turns thick and frothy-it may take some time, but just keep at it. Once you’re satisfied with the texture, pour some milk into a glass, add ice cubes if desired, and top it off with the whipped coffee mix. Snap a photo for Instagram, mix the layers together, and drink up; the result is a creamy drink with a slight thickness and frothiness.
