Another day of social distancing means another day of experiments in the kitchen, and my most recent one was whipped coffee!  It’s been all over my social media feeds, so I decided to give it a try…

It’s pretty simple, really. All you need are three ingredients: instant coffee, warm water and some sweetener.

  The standard recipe calls for two tablespoons of instant coffee, two tablespoons of sweetener and two tablespoons of warm water. However, I found it pretty strong so I added a few extra packets of Splenda for more sweetness.

  You can mix it using a whisk or a fork, or you can use a hand or stand electric mixer. The main thing is to keep it moving, because the more you mix, the more it develops that mousse-like, whipped consistency.

  You'll notice it begin to get lighter and thicker, the more that you mix it.

  When it's almost done, the consistency should resemble meringue or cool whip, and have a caramel color.

  The most popular way to serve whipped coffee is over cold milk or half and half. Fill your glass about three fourths full of milk, and top off with whipped coffee.

  Fun fact: whipped coffee is delicious with hot coffee, too! Add a couple spoonfuls over your coffee for some extra frothiness.

  My husband is a coffee fiend, too, and we love this stuff so much that I double or triple the recipe, and it stores nicely in a tupperware container in the fridge.

This has been a tasty treat to satisfy my fancy coffee cravings while staying home—and it has saved lots of money, too!
