Instructions

  • Measure 2 Tbsp granulated sugar and 2 Tbsp instant coffee granules into a medium bowl (or the bowl of a stand mixer).
  • Add 2 Tbsp hot water to the sugar-and-coffee mixture.
  • Whisk the mixture immediately until light and airy: using an electric mixer on medium-high will take about 2–4 minutes; whisking by hand will take about 10–20 minutes. The whipped coffee is ready when it has doubled in volume, is shiny and smooth, and holds a mousse-like structure.
  • Fill a glass with ice, then pour 1 cup milk over the ice.
  • Using a spoon, spatula, or cookie scoop, top the milk with the whipped coffee mixture.
  • Serve immediately (stir the whipped coffee into the milk before drinking if you prefer).

Notes

Tips
The easiest way to make this drink is with either a stand mixer or hand mixer. You can use a whisk to whip it by hand, but it will take 10 to 20 minutes. With a mixer, it takes less than five minutes.
You can enjoy the drink as its served, or you can stir the creamy whipped topping into the milk. Stirring it definitely dilutes the strong flavor.
You can save the extra whipped coffee. It will keep in the refrigerator for a day or so.
