Undecided about you, however I’ve turn out to be fairly the barista throughout our quarantine occasions.
(that may be a reflection of my cellphone, not one thing floating, lol)
I’ve at all times liked espresso (effectively, since school occasions once I lastly began ingesting it) however now as I become older, I actually recognize the artwork behind the proper cup.
Despite the fact that I depend on my native espresso store when occasions are regular, they usually know my identify and order once I stroll in, I rapidly realized I used to be going to need to get good at this espresso factor.
I’ve been doing a ton of analysis on French Press, since that’s what I had within the closet, and I’ll let you know, I’ve gotten fairly good.
On the opposite finish of the espresso spectrum, some mornings I would like one thing chilly because the climate has began to heat up.
I’ve seen Dalgona espresso EVERRYYWHEREEEE and at last picked up some immediate espresso powder on my listing grocery journey to offer it a attempt.
As I used to be doing analysis on it, I additionally realized individuals have been making a Matcha model that was not solely stunning, however sounded scrumptious.
I immediately ran upstairs to seize my packet of Now Meals Natural Matcha Powder & two masterpieces have been born….for my part.
So what’s Dalgona Espresso?
Dalgona espresso is a beverage made by whipping equal proportions of immediate espresso powder, sugar, and scorching water till it turns into creamy after which including it to chilly or scorching milk.
IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT “WHIPPING” MATCHA!!
With regards to Matcha, all of my analysis was displaying the way it doesn’t do the identical factor that the moment espresso powder does.
It tends to not “whip” with simply scorching water and sugar and some individuals instructed utilizing a can of pure coconut milk, letting it sit within the fridge over evening to harden, after which utilizing the coconut fats off the highest of the can to whip with the matcha.
THIS WORKED FOR ME! So I extremely suggest.
Simply watch out if you go to scrape it out of the can, you might create a little bit of a large number, which I’ll be sincere, I are likely to make a large number anytime I’m within the kitchen.

The espresso appeared like this once I was carried out:
