The trendy coffee drink from TikTok gets a grown up makeover with Bailey's to make an alcoholic Dalgona whipped coffee drink recipe. This is an easy recipe that can be made in about 15 minutes. Use your favorite
The first time I tried a Dalgona whipped coffee recipe, I thought it would be good with Bailey's in it. Using Bailey's would be a quick and easy way to take this coffee drink to the next level.
I had some almond Bailey's, so I gave it a try. It's delicious! It's a great drink for the evening, although you may want to use a decaf coffee in the evening.
If you don't drink or want to make this without alcohol, I'll give you some alternatives for a non alcoholic drink.
Bailey's Alcoholic Dalgona Coffee Drink Recipe
What is Whipped Coffee (Dalgona Coffee)?
Whipped coffee is the latest TikTok and Instagram trend. It's a trendy coffee drink that's easy to make at home.
You just whip coffee grounds, water, and sugar until it turns into a foam or looks like whipped cream. Then place it on top of warm or iced milk.
Can You Make Whipped Coffee With Regular Coffee?
Yes, but it's not recommended. You really need to start with instant coffee for this Bailey's alcoholic Dalgona coffee drink recipe.
You can use regular coffee grounds, but you'll have to grind them into a very find powder and then pass them through a sieve to remove the large particles. It won't whip up as well as with instant coffee though.
For me, it's just easier to use the coffee crystals.
Why Does Instant Coffee Whip?
Unlike regular coffee grounds, instant coffee has xanthan gum. It's a preservative that stabilizes the coffee. It's what allows instant coffee to turn into a whipped, airy substance.
Is Whipped Coffee Good?
Yes! Whipped coffee has a light and airy texture. It tastes almost like a latte. Even homemade whipped coffee tastes like an expensive coffee house drink.
The whipped coffee melts into the milk, and it makes a creamy coffee drink.
It has a slight bitter coffee taste, but the aftertaste is sweet and smooth.
How Long Does Whipped Coffee Take?
Whipping the coffee, water, and sugar takes the longest. If you use a whisk, plan to spend 15 to 20 minutes whipping it.
Use a hand mixer to cut this down to 2-3 minutes.
I don't own a milk frother, but I hear that they won't work very well to make whipped coffee.
Bailey's Cream
I wanted a boozy coffee drink, so I added a splash of almond Bailey's cream. Bailey's comes in several different flavors, so choose the one you like best.
You can turn this into an Irish Cream, Salted Caramel, Strawberries and Cream, Red Velvet, Pumpkin Spice, Vanilla Cinnamon, or Chocolate Cherry with all of their different flavors.
Don't want an alcoholic Dalonga coffee recipe? Simply omit the Bailey's or use a syrup like with this French vanilla Dalgona coffee recipe.
You could also use flavored coffee creamer in place of the Bailey's cream.
Milk Choice
You can use your choice of milk to make this alcoholic whipped coffee recipe. I used coconut milk, but you can use almond milk or cow's milk.
