How To Make The Viral Whipped Honey Coffee

Move over caramel syrup, there’s a new coffee sweetener in town. TikTok has discovered a delicious way to level up your latte: by whipping honey and adding it to your brew, creating a frothy morning tipple that feels like a treat. The drink is becoming increasingly popular in cafes across New York, but it couldn’t be easier to replicate at home: here’s how.

What Is Whipped Honey Coffee?

Whipped honey coffee is a sweet and creamy drink made with instant coffee, honey, hot water, milk and ice. It’s similar to Dalgona coffee, the Korean drink which took the internet by storm during lockdown, which sees instant coffee, sugar and sugar whipped together to create a frothy treat – kind of like an upside down cappuccino. Recently, though, honey has been added to the equation as a healthier alternative for the sugar element.

What Else Can You Do With Whipped Honey?

Whipped honey is having a moment right now. The whipping process helps to break down its crystalline structure, resulting in a smoother, more spreadable consistency which feels frothy and airy (and looks aesthetic). Recipes are popping up all over the internet: as well as adding it to your coffee, you can top your whipped honey on toast, drizzle it on pancakes, or incorporate it into desserts.

Whipped Honey Latte Recipe

Makes 1 coffee

Ingredients:

• 1 tbsp honey
• 1 tbsp hot water
• 1 tbsp instant coffee
• 350ml milk (or plant-based milk)
• A few cubes of ice

Equipment:

• Handheld milk frother or whisk

Method:

1. Place the honey in a bowl and whisk it until it turns creamy.
2. Add the instant coffee and hot water, and whisk again until all blended – the mixture should turn a coffee colour.
3. Add your ice cubes to a glass, and top with milk.
4. Pour the coffee mixture on top, give it a little stir and enjoy.

TIP: Prefer your coffee hot? You can leave out the ice and heat up the milk for a hot version. If you want to double up on the caffeine, add another teaspoon of instant coffee to the milk and mix.
