How This Started
A creamy, whipped coffee known as Dalgona in South Korea started percolating in late January, according to Google Trends, then gained attraction near the end of February when a Korean YouTuber posted a now viral, ASMR-style video of how to make the creamy drink.

4.Coffee
This has to be main reason because who doesn't like coffee. Like who wont like to make this coffee and sit in your favorite corner and enjoy reading books.
5.Boredom Booster
I have to say this, we were having hard-and-fast life from which everybody wanted a vacation but now when we have time to rest and pause we are getting bored, but NO WORRIES Dolgona Coffee is at the rescue, apart from Netflix, Amazon Prime, Ramayana and Mahabharata obviously.
6.It Looks Beautiful and Picturesque
Yeah you read it right. In this age if something is uploadable, well then put it on your account and it catches fire. This coffee looks so pleasing to eyes as if you have ordered from the cafe and we youth are architect of cafe culture in India.
RECIPE
To make dalgona coffee, you'll need instant coffee, granulated sugar, hot water, and the milk of your choice (plant-based is a-OK). First, combine two tablespoons of instant coffee, two tablespoons of granulated sugar, and two tablespoons of hot water in a small mixing bowl. Use a hand mixer or latte frother to beat the mixture until it gets really thick, with a golden brown color.
Next, pour the milk of your choice into a glass with a few ice cubes. Scoop the mixture out of the bowl and place it on top of the cold milk. And that's it! Take a picture of your dalgona coffee and post it on your favorite social media to become part of a growing coffee-obsessed community. You can also mix the two parts together to make it look and taste more like a latte.
