This whipped coffee trend layers an airy, caramel-colored foam over a glass of cold milk, creating a two-toned drink that's stirred together just before sipping. Equal parts instant coffee, sugar, and hot water whip into stiff, glossy peaks with a whisk or electric mixer, no espresso machine required. It makes a photogenic afternoon pick-me-up or a slow weekend treat.

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons instant coffee granules
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons hot water
  • 1 cup milk, cold
  • 1/2 cup ice cubes

Method

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the instant coffee granules, granulated sugar, and hot water.

  2. Whisk vigorously, or beat with an electric hand mixer on high speed, until the mixture turns pale brown, thickens, and holds stiff, glossy peaks, about 3 to 5 minutes with a mixer or 10 minutes by hand.

  3. Fill a glass with ice cubes and pour in the cold milk, leaving room at the top.

  4. Spoon the whipped coffee foam generously over the top of the milk.

  5. Serve immediately with a straw or spoon, stirring the foam into the milk just before drinking.
