HOW TO MAKE A DALGONA COFFEE COCKTAIL
WHAT YOU'LL NEED
- 2 tbsp of sugar
- 2 tbsp of instant coffee
- 2 tbsp of cold water
- 30ml Bailey's Irish Cream Liqueur
- 30ml of Vodka
- 6 x ice cubes
- 1 x cocktail shaker (optional)
- A cocktail glass of your choice
RECIPE
1. Pour your Baileys Irish Cream and vodka into a cocktail shaker or glass filled with ice. Shake and strain the mixture into a martini glass.
2. In a medium-size bowl, vigorously whisk together 2 tablespoons sugar, 2 tablespoons instant coffee, and 2 tablespoons cold water until it thickens and reaches a whipped cream-like consistency. This can be done with your choice of whisk, a milk frother, or a handheld blender.
3. Scoop the whipped coffee onto the top of the chilled martini, stir, and enjoy (and don't forget to share a snap of your creation on Instagram).
