Ingredients
For the Coffee Foam
- 2 tbsp instant coffee
- 1 tbsp honey
- 3 tbsp hot water
For Serving
- Milk (about 3/4 cup, any type)
- Ice cubes
Instructions
- Whisk the Coffee Mixture: In a bowl, combine the instant coffee, honey, and hot water. Using a milk frother, whisk vigorously for 2-4 minutes until the mixture thickens and becomes frothy with a light, airy texture.
- Fill Your Glass: Take a tall glass and fill it with plenty of ice cubes. Pour your preferred milk over the ice, filling the glass about three-quarters full.
- Top with Coffee Foam: Spoon the whipped coffee foam gently on top of the milk. Optionally, swirl the layers lightly with a spoon or straw to blend flavors while keeping the distinct foam layer.
- Enjoy: Serve immediately and enjoy the delicious contrast between the creamy milk base and the sweet, airy coffee foam topping by sipping slowly.
Notes
- Use any milk of your choice including dairy, almond, soy, or oat milk.
- The honey not only sweetens but also helps stabilize the froth for a creamier texture.
- For a stronger coffee flavor, you can increase the instant coffee to 3 tablespoons.
- This recipe is best enjoyed fresh as the foam will collapse over time.
- Cold water will not create the same frothy texture; hot water is essential for proper whipping.
