If you’ve been frequenting trendy coffee shops or scrolling social media recently, chances are you have seen whipped coffee gaining momentum. This creamy and frothy drink can easily be made at home using instant coffee, sugar and boiling water to whip together into a thick cream that’s then drizzled over milk and ice for the perfect pick-me-up and replacement for coffee shop lattes!

A delicious whipped coffee recipe can be made quickly with just a whisk or electric mixer in minutes! Indulge in this inexpensive alternative to coffee shop indulgences for an energy boost with just your hands or an electric mixer, tailored specifically to meet your personal taste and dietary preferences.

Originating as an equal blend of instant coffee and sugar, whipped coffee has now become increasingly popular due to people adding different flavor profiles – cocoa powder, matcha tea, boba or lemon extract are becoming increasingly popular options for their creations! Some even use it as a cake, cookie and smoothie bowl topping! Plus it stores well for up to three days so it can even serve as an alternate source of caffeine in dessert recipes or add an extra creamy touch when added to hot chocolate beverages!

One of the most popular variations on this whipped coffee recipe involves swapping out regular sugar for honey. Honey has a lower glycemic index than regular sugar, meaning it won’t spike your blood sugar as dramatically. Plus, honey’s unrefined nature means it offers additional vitamins than refined white sugar does!

Coconut sugar, brown sugar or maple syrup may offer different flavor profiles and alter the texture of your whipped coffee; however, I advise sticking with this original version for optimal fluffiness results.

Keep in mind when creating whipped coffee that it can be high in calories if using regular sugar, especially if using non-fat dairy or almond milk as this will reduce calorie counts without altering its flavor. I suggest cutting back on how much regular sugar you use by switching to lower calorie alternatives like maple syrup, brown sugar or stevia instead – these will all help cut back calorie counts without losing flavor! If following a low carb diet try replacing regular sugar with non-fat milk instead – this will further reduce calorie counts while still creating its desired flavor of whipped coffee!
