"it wasn't a covid phase, mom!!" If you lived through the pandemic and also had a crippling tiktok addiction, you've probably tried dalgona coffee. I recently got back into it after running out of fresh beans and boy oh boy, this shit still hits!!!
it's so simple. so easy. soooo good.
recipe:
• 2 tbsp of instant coffee // I use trader joes, but there are better
• 2 tbsp of brown sugar // any granulated sugar will do
• 2 tbsp of hot water // I do 190°
• whip/wisk/fluff/destroy till it becomes a fluffy caramel-to-first tan of summer gold
spoon it on top of milk of choice and bam!
enjoy <3
i know everyone was making this during the pandemic and it’s lowkey a traumatic drink for that reason … but it’s still soo yummy and fun to make in the mornings. 10/10 we must return to our roots
Remember Dalgona coffee? That thing everyone was making during the lockdown? I’ve never actually tried it but I have this idea that a Dalgona Affogato would be a lot of fun. Like good vanilla gelato with a whipped coffee topping 🤤
@PRINCESS pointed out Sweet Treats are capitalist propaganda and idk If I fully agree BUT I think a yummy latte is 200% more rewarding if you make it! my recipe: Brown sugar, instant espresso, milk, ice, optional vanilla extract and cinnamon. you also need a jar with a lid, so save one next Time you use a glass jar
—> boil some water, while it’s boiling put 2 Tbsp of instant espresso and at least as much brown sugar into your jar
—> pour enough water to dissolve (less than 1 espresso shot of liquid — your ice will add volume) and stir well
—> add ice and shake it around until it’s cold
—> fill the rest of the jar (leaving room for more ice) with milk and top with a splash of vanillla and a sprinkle of cinnamon, then put on the lid and SHAKE THAT FUCKER LIKE NOTHING MATTERS
—> fill the rest of the way with ice and enjoy :-)

music junkie? into niche sounds? compelled to scream your insufferable sonic opinions into the void? love to quantify your loosely held beliefs with obscure meaningless metrics?
AOTY is a great way to discover, ponder, and ruminate on music of all kinds.
