Pro-Tips for Dalgona Coffee

Regardless of trends, coffee drinkers constantly seek new and creative ways to enjoy their beverages. Different preparation styles and flavors are just a few of the things that pique their interest. Here are some suggestions for preparing the renowned Dalgona coffee in this homage.

• Don't cut down on the sugar if you want your coffee foam to have a perfectly creamy and foamy texture or consistency, as the sugar gives it the ideal creamy and frothy texture; you may add extra if you like.
• Add hot water to the coffee while you are whipping it. Avoid adding more water than is necessary. Remember that your Dalgona coffee won't have the desired creamy consistency if the water isn't boiling.
• You must granulate your sugar. Anything else, including simple syrups or powdered sugar, won't produce foam and will make your Dalgona recipe futile.
• You could prefer the flavor of a fresh filtered coffee mixture for the coffee that will be used, but only instant coffee should be used.

 Health Benefits of Dalgona Coffee

DISCLAIMER-  This blog does not provide you with any medical advice. It is strictly meant to be an informational and recipe blog only. Please consult your physician or medical expert for what works best for you.

1. Weight loss assistance - If you leave out the sugar in the recipe, Dalgona coffee can help you lose weight. Use honey instead. This will give it a more robust, healthier flavor and help you avoid the "energy slump" you may experience if you take it with sugar. Without the sugar, you'll be more alert, energized, and active the rest of the day or at least the peak of sugar high.
2. Vegan & Keto Friendly- Dalgona coffee is both vegan and keto-friendly. Substitute coconut, almond, or oat milk for ordinary milk. For a healthier option, you can also use honey, stevia, and coconut sugar, which has a lower glycemic index than regular sugar, or you can use less sugar.
3. Ease Stomach Acidity -With its use of milk, Dalgona coffee can help with stomach issues. Milk has been shown to balance coffee's acidity and high pH levels. In addition, the calcium and protein content of milk in coffee can help prevent bowel cancer and lower the risk of heartburn.
4. Slightly less caffeine- Studies have shown that drinking too much caffeine can increase your risk of anxiety, upset stomach, restlessness, tremors, fast heartbeat, and sleep disruption. Instant coffee has a slightly lower caffeine level than regular coffee.
5. Instant energy boost- Dalgona coffee, like standard coffee, can enhance your energy levels and make you feel more alert and less exhausted. In reality, instant coffee contains several antioxidants and nutrients that may improve your health in various ways, including a decreased risk of type 2 diabetes and liver disease.
