Officially known as Dalgona (a South Korean four-ingredient cuppa), the craze kickstarted after a YouTuber posted a now-viral tutorial on how to make the Instagram-worthy beverage. 

Soon, Instagram influencers and TikTok users alike embraced the challenge and have been busy concocting the afternoon pick-me-up ever since.

So before adding to your quarantine to-do list, here’s how to make whipped coffee (without even having to pop to the supermarket).

First things first, you’ll need instant coffee, sugar, milk of your choice and hot water.

Side note: if you don’t know the difference between a flat white and a cappuccino (nor do you care), then you can swap instant coffee with matcha green tea or cocoa powder.

All you need to do is mix a spoonful (or two!) of each ingredient together in a bowl by hand (or with an electric whisk if you’re really fancy) until you see firm and frothy peaks of good old caffeine form. 

Then, chuck some ice cubes into a glass/mug/mason jar and pour in the milk.

Spoon your glorious coffee mix over to finish and settle down to the next book on your must-read list.
