Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Whisk or electric hand mixer
  • Measuring Spoons
  • Serving glass
  • Spoon

Ingredients
  

For the Whipped Coffee

  • 2 tablespoons instant coffee powder or granules
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 tablespoons hot water

For the Milk

  • 1 cup fresh milk

Fresh Milk Substitute

  • 4 4 tablespoons powdered milk
  • 1 cup warm water

Optional Toppings

  • Instant coffee powder
  • Cocoa powder
  • Crumbled biscuits
  • Honey

Instructions
 

  • Combine the coffee mixture. In a mixing bowl, combine the instant coffee, sugar, and hot water using the 1:1:1 ratio.
  • Whip the coffee. Whisk vigorously until the mixture becomes light, thick, and foamy. A manual whisk may take around 10 minutes, while an electric hand mixer will make the process much faster. The finished coffee should be thick enough to hold its shape.
  • Prepare the milk. Pour 1 cup of fresh milk into a serving glass, leaving enough room for the whipped coffee. You may use cold, iced, warm, or hot milk depending on your preference.
  • Make the milk substitute if needed. If fresh milk is unavailable, dissolve 3–4 tablespoons powdered milk completely in 1 cup warm water. Allow it to cool to your preferred temperature.
  • Add the whipped coffee. Carefully spoon the thick coffee foam over the milk, creating a generous layer on top.
  • Add toppings. Sprinkle with a little instant coffee powder or cocoa powder. You can also add crushed biscuits or a small drizzle of honey.
  • Serve. Enjoy immediately. Stir the whipped coffee into the milk before drinking for a creamy, balanced coffee flavor.

Notes

  • Follow the 1:1:1 ratio of instant coffee, sugar, and hot water for the whipped coffee.
  • Use instant coffee, not brewed coffee or regular ground coffee, to achieve the characteristic whipped texture. Manila Spoon
  • Manual whisking works, but an electric hand mixer is much easier and faster.
  • The coffee foam can be served over either cold or warm milk. Manila Spoon
  • Adjust the amount of topping according to your preference.
  • For a stronger coffee flavor, use a dark or bold instant coffee.
  • If making multiple servings, simply increase the coffee, sugar, and hot water equally while maintaining the 1:1:1 ratio.
