Whipped Coffee: FAQ
Can I Use Regular Ground Coffee?
The answer is yes. To make this recipe work without instant coffee, use the same amount of brewed coffee as sugar. For example, use 2 tablespoons of strongly brewed coffee or espresso and 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar. Keeping the sugar proportional with the coffee will help you achieve a more fluffy and custard-like texture.
Is Instant Coffee The Same As Instant Espresso?
Espresso powder is made the same way that instant coffee is made, but the flavor is different. It has a stronger, often darker flavor than instant coffee and it also tends to be smoother. Plus powdered espresso is often made with higher-quality beans, like Arabica blends.
What Kind Of Sugar Is Best For Whipped Coffee?
Granulated sugar. You can use white sugar, brown sugar, raw sugar, or coconut sugar.
Can I Make It With Less Sugar, No Sugar Or A Sugar Alternative?
