Dalgona Coffee
Dalgona coffee is one of those popular fads you just have to try. It’s traditionally a blend of instant coffee, sugar, and hot water whipped to creamy perfection and poured over milk. This version of Dalgona coffee is a boozy riff off of the trend using a whipped espresso cream, Kahula, and rum. It’s simply sweet and creamy, with strong coffee flavor and pleasant aesthetics to match! Dalgona coffee is fun to make at home and pretty enough to serve to friends and family.
Spiked Coffee
If you’re one to enjoy boozy beverages, you need this spiked coffee in your life. A layer of whipped cream and espresso floats on top of milk, above a layer of Kahula and rum. Coffee and booze go together like a well-matched pair and there are many different ways to enjoy it. We love this dalgona version of spiked coffee because it’s unique and delicious— Making it great for special occasions and holidays, too.
