What is Korean coffee?

Korean coffee, often known as Dalgona coffee, is a fluffy and frothy coffee made by whipping equal proportions of instant coffee, sugar, and hot water until it becomes creamy and adding it to cold or hot milk.

Is Korean coffee different from regular coffee?

Yes, Korean coffee is unique because it is served with the coffee on top of the milk instead of mixed in, and it has a distinctly frothy texture.

What type of coffee is used in Korean coffee?

Instant coffee is usually used in Korean coffee.

How is Korean coffee made?

Korean coffee is made by whipping together instant coffee, sugar, and hot water until it becomes frothy, then it's served on top of cold or hot milk.

Why is Korean coffee so popular?

Korean coffee gained popularity due to its unique presentation, easy preparation method, and the viral TikTok trend during the Covid-19 quarantine period.

Can I make Korean coffee without sugar?

Is Korean coffee vegan friendly?

When I was studying abroad, I drank mix coffee to relieve my homesickness, and in Korea, I drank it because I missed my study abroad days. Haha. The yellow one was bland(?), so when I was in Korea, I drank Maxwell. I bought it because it was red, thinking it was Maxwell, but it was Maxim Original. I also like this because it has a refreshing(?) taste.

This is really good on its own and I'm not typically a fan of black coffee, but I still prefer to add milk anyway. It has a very strong hazelnut taste which I love. I like to pair it with banana milk and it makes a banana hazelnut milk coffee which is just divine and it's the perfect portion size for me.
