How to make it

4 steps. Take it one step at a time.

  1. Combine the instant coffee powder and granulated sugar

    In a deep, narrow mixing bowl, combine the instant coffee powder and granulated sugar.

  2. Pour the ice-cold water

    Pour the ice-cold water into the bowl with the coffee and sugar.

  3. Whisk the mixture

    Using an electric hand mixer, whisk the mixture on high speed for approximately 5-7 minutes. The liquid will transform from dark brown to a light, caramel-colored thick foam that holds its shape.

    5 min

  4. Transfer the foam

    Transfer the foam into small glasses or cups and serve immediately for the best texture.

A little kitchen wisdom

Ensure the water is ice-cold to achieve the thickest, most stable foam. You can serve this as is in small espresso cups or dollop it over cold milk for a latte-style drink.

Keep the good going

For now. And for later.

Make it ahead

This is best served immediately as the foam will eventually lose air and liquefy. If needed, you can re-whip it briefly before serving.

Store & enjoy

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Do not reheat. Re-whip with a mixer if it starts to separate.
