You can make dalgona coffee thick like dessert, or more like a latte.
Connie Guglielmo/CNETMore than a year after it became wildly popular online, dalgona coffee is still beloved all over the internet. This cold whipped coffee drink is an Instagram, YouTube and TikTok sensation and was inspired by a South Korean honeycomb toffee of the same name. It's sweet, smooth and will make you forget all about running out to grab a latte.
The basic recipe includes a mere five ingredients -- instant coffee, sugar, water, milk and ice -- and is easy to prepare at home by yourself or with your kids. The beauty of this beverage is that it's open to dozens of variations. Decaf versions won't keep you up all night. Oat milk and coconut sugar work just as well as the standard dairy and sweetener. Lemon zest and mint can jazz up the milk. You can even add a shot of booze and extra caffeine.
There are just a few things we wouldn't recommend. Cocoa powder doesn't sub in well for instant coffee. If you place the dalgona foam on a hot drink, it'll melt. And we don't recommend our colleague's version topped with bologna.

How to make dalgona coffee at home
For the basic dalgona coffee recipe, all you'll need is:
- 1 tablespoon of instant coffee or instant espresso
- 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon of water
- milk (dairy or nondairy will work equally well here)
Add the instant coffee, sugar and water to a bowl and whisk vigorously (or use a hand blender if you have one to make it a much easier process) until the mixture becomes superthick -- it should hold a similar consistency to whipped cream with somewhat stiff peaks -- and turns a subtle golden-brown color.

Pour milk into a glass filled with ice cubes, then scoop the pillowy mixture on top of the cold milk or mix the two parts together if you're looking for more of a latte situation.
You can also dress it up with variations, like mint in the milk layer, or dalgona coffee foam over a different beverage -- like iced coffee or cold chocolate milk -- or even sprinkles on top. It's a fun, lighthearted drink, so have fun with it.
Snap a photo (or video the entire thing) and post it online so that you, too, can join the ever-growing dalgona coffee community.
