STEP BY STEP

Make it

  1. Dissolve

    Combine coffee, sugar and boiling water in the bowl.

  2. Whip

    Beat 5–15 minutes until pale and thick enough to hold peaks.

  3. Divide milk

    Pour one cup milk into each glass; use cold milk or gently warmed milk.

  4. Top and stir

    Divide foam over the drinks. Stir it into the milk before sipping.

Good to know

  • Ground coffee cannot replace instant coffee here.
  • Whipping by hand takes longer than using a mixer.
