This coffee is a hype that is here to stay.
Trends come and go. Some go viral for a bit, and then disappear. And some have staying power.
Like whipped coffee–it looks amazing, and guess what, it tastes amazing too.
It’s not just hype.
Summer is the perfect time to have fun with your cup of coffee, this drink feels just as indulging (if not more) as the ones you order in a cafe (and pay $12 or more for).
With just a few ingredients, you can make yourself something so surprisingly delicious.
And guess what:
You can prepare it once and enjoy it all week.
Yes, even on Shabbos (think shalosh seudos!) Simply freeze the “batter” and scoop it out as needed.
You will start by blending together the sugar, instant coffee and hot water.
We used a hand mixer, it works perfectly for the job. A standing mixer with the whisk attachment would work well too, but it felt silly to pull that out for this. We also read that some people use the food processor with the s-blade. So we assume that should work as well.
We know you will ask, “Does an immersion blender work too?” The answer is we do not know. We haven’t tried it. Let us know in comments if you do.
You want to blend it long enough so that it lightens in color significantly and reaches the consistency of a cake batter or even marshmallow fluff.
Thick and creamy, with ripples showing. This will take time. How long? Approximately 5 minutes, which is a loooong time when blending something. So keep going, don’t give up too soon.
This is why we call it “whipped” coffee. (Because it takes some time, that’s why we’re making a big batch…so we can use it all week long.)
Once you have a thick batter that can be scooped up onto a spoon like marshmallow fluff, you are ready to prepare your cup of delicious cold coffee.
At this point, you can either prepare yourself a cup, or freeze the batter as-is for future use.
To prepare the coffee:
Place some ice in a cup.
We used these cute ice balls because we enjoy Between Carpools tips too! We like to have little fancy ice balls in our freezer because they make our drinks feel special even though…they’re still just ice.
Add milk halfway up the cup. Use any milk that you like, whether from a cow, a plant or a nut, we do not discriminate.
Top with a GENEROUS dollop of whipped coffee and add a straw.
Wait a few minutes and stir gently to mix the flavors.
Enjoy!
If preparing this drink with the frozen batter, the method is the same, simply scoop some batter up and use as directed.
Whipped Coffee
Ingredients
- ½ cup instant coffee (any variety or brand will work)
- 1 cup sugar
- ½ cup hot water
To Prepare a Cup of Coffee:
- ice
- milk of choice
- whipped coffee
Instructions
- Place all the ingredients in a bowl.
- Using a hand mixer (or a standing mixer with the whisk attachment), whip until the mixture changes in color to a light taupe color and becomes thick like a batter. You are looking for a consistency like marshmallow fluff. This will take a long time, about 5 minutes on high speed. You can freeze the batter at this point for later use, or proceed to make the coffee.
- To prepare your cup of coffee, place ice halfway up a glass. Add milk to cover the ice. Top with a generous amount of whipped coffee and let sit for 2-3 minutes before serving. Stir gently to mix the flavors.
Hi, any idea if this can work with xylitol instead of sugar?
So so cool that you can freeze it!! Can’t wait to try it !
can you skip the sugar altogether?
Probably not as it needs the sugar to stabilize it
This sounds delicious! Is there sone way to do it with brewed coffee instead of indtant?
This works with an immersion blender. I’ve done it, but not in such a large amount. I prepared a single serving directly in a cup and then added milk after blending it.
Hi! Does this work with cold brew?
Yum looks so good! you guys make it look super proff
and ur low key so funny
Yuum!! How many servings does your recipe yield
How long do you need to defrost it when taking it out of the freezer?
You can use it straight from the freezer.
I did with blender was heaven
I tried this with a blender, didn’t come out as thick, but it tasted delicious!
PS, where can i get those cute classes?
HI, dont bother with the stick blender or s blade…doesnt work! Wasn’t lazy – schlepped out the beaters and was well worth it!
-HEAVEN IN A CUP!!
PS, the best part- since the bowl and beaters were dirty anyway- CHOCO CHIP COOKIES!! YUMM!! didn’t even rinse the bowl in between!!
Mine did not work, but then I tried it with a single serving and came out great!
Absolutely Delicious!! Tastes like from the shop!
You guys are so funny, what made you try beating water to make it into whip? funny how it works.
Would love to hear feedback if anyone tried it with any sugar substitute.
I always do it with monk fruit and immersion blender. Works amazing
I always use monk fruit and immersion blender and works amazing
Stick blender worked fine,but its not comfortable to hold the button the whole time. I usually just use one whisk on my hand mixer in a 2 lb container. Keeps the mess contained, and no need to transfer to a different container to store.
This is heaven!! Thank you so much!!
Thanks for idea, also did it with one stick on hand whisk directly into 1L container.
