Ingredients

2 tbsp instant coffee granules
2 tbsp granulated sugar
2 tbsp hot water (just boiled)
2 cups cold whole milk (or oat milk for dairy-free)
2 cups ice cubes

Instructions

1

Combine 2 tbsp instant coffee granules, 2 tbsp granulated sugar, and 2 tbsp hot water (just boiled) in a medium bowl. The amounts must be equal - this ratio is essential for the foam to form.
2

Using a hand mixer, electric whisk, or a sturdy manual whisk, whip the mixture vigorously until it becomes thick, pale, and holds stiff peaks. This takes about 2 minutes with an electric mixer or 5 to 7 minutes by hand.
3

Fill two glasses with 2 cups ice cubes and pour 2 cups cold whole milk (or oat milk for dairy-free) over the ice, filling each glass about three-quarters full.
4

Spoon the whipped coffee foam generously on top of each glass.
5

Stir before drinking to combine the foam and milk. Serve immediately.
