  • Hi, I'm Andrew.

  • I'm a designer on the Starbucks Stories Team here in Seattle, and I'm in my kitchen to show you how to make a fun, easy coffee recipe in your own home.

  • And typically, I go for cold brew or a hot coffee on Chemex, something really simple, but this one's a little bit more indulgent and also easy to make.

  • I was a barista for about five years, and I used to have so much fun customizing my own drinks.

  • And this one took me by surprise.

  • It's called Dalgona coffee.

  • You may have seen it on Instagram, but it's a beautiful, frothy, whipped coffee that's dolloped on top of milk and ice, and it's really simple.

  • We start with two ingredients: coffee and water.

  • I've got Starbucks VIA sweetened ice coffee here.

  • It's a medium roast that's naturally sweetened with cane sugar, and it's got a nice fine grind that whips up really easily.

  • I have two packets of that plus two tablespoons of water.

  • If you want more, scale it up.

  • So we're gonna take these and combine them, and then comes the fun part.

  • We're gonna whisk this for about five minutes.

  • If you've got an electric mixer, feel free to use that.

  • It will save time, but this is also a good workout.

  • Let's get started.

  • Now, the reason I didn't wanna use my stand mixer is because I didn't feel like making a bigger mess.

  • At first, you'll see little bubbles start to form, and this definitely will take you a few minutes.

  • After about a minute, it starts to turn a lighter brown color, and you'll start to see that the volume increases.

  • Now this is the part where I wish I would've just gotten my electric mixer out, but we're almost there.

  • So, after about five minutes, this has turned a nice peanut butter color, and it's really smooth and creamy, just like that, looks perfect.

  • And now we're gonna build our drink, and this is where you can customize it a little bit too.

  • So I'm gonna start with a glass of ice, and then I'm gonna add a little bit of vanilla syrup.

  • And if you didn't know, you can find Starbucks vanilla syrup in Starbucks stores, or in grocery stores, or online.

  • I'll just do about a half teaspoon here because the whipped coffee is already sweet on its own.

  • And then, I'm gonna fill the glass with milk, and we'll just leave a little bit of room at the top for our whipped coffee.

  • This is also really good with oat milk.

  • And then, we're gonna try not to make a mess and pour this right on top.

  • This makes about two servings, so you can take whatever you have leftover and just keep it in the fridge for about a day.

  • Looks perfect.

  • And that's it.

  • So now we'll take our Instagram shots, but you can see we have a nice layered drink with whipped coffee on top and our milk and syrup on the bottom.

  • Before we drink it, we just wanna give it a good stir, incorporate that nice frothy whipped coffee in the whole drink.

  • So anyways, really easy, hope you make it, and if you do, make sure you take a picture and use #starbucksathome.

  • Can't wait to see. Enjoy!
