Add instant coffee, sugar and boiling water to a mixing bowl. Give a quick stir to incorporate the coffee with the water.

Begin to whisk vigorously until the mixture turns to a thick coffee cream, that holds stiff peaks.

Option 1 - Using a hand whisk it takes about 12 to 15 minutes depending on your arm strength. While you whisk, tilt the bowl slightly to help you whisk and aerate the mixture well. Also at regular intervals scrape the sides.

Option 2 - If using a electric hand mixer, it takes about 7 to 8 minutes depending on your equipment. Scrape the sides a few times at intervals of 2 to 3 mins.

Option 3 - If using a electric stand mixer, whip it on a high speed using a wire whisk or a paddle attachment. After 1 minute, scrape the sides. In my KitchenAid it took about 3 to 4 minutes on the highest speed.

When the coffee cream is done it takes on a lighter color with stiff peaks.

Pour chilled or hot milk to serving cups. You can also add ice cubes if you prefer. Then scoop the dalgona coffee cream on top of the milk.

With a straw, gently stir a part of the coffee cream into the milk and enjoy dalgona coffee.
