Dalgona coffee

       Over the last couple months, Dalgona coffee has become a worldwide trend that’s been seen all over social media. The beverage, also referred to as whipped coffee, is named after a sugary South Korean candy and has become one of the biggest trends on video app TikTok while simultaneously being shared by influencers on Instagram around the world.

       The rise of this drink’s popularity can be attributed to its simplicity and aesthetics. To make the drink, all you need is instant coffee, hot water, sugar and milk. By beating equal portions of instant coffee, hot water and sugar with a whisk or mixer, the “whipped” part of the drink is made. The whipped mixture is then topped over a glass of milk to create a beautiful drink, with the milk on the bottom and cream floating above the milk. After snapping some “artsy” photos and posting on social media, the cold, delicious beverage can be mixed into a single substance and becomes ready to drink.
