In this recipe, orange creamsicle meets the dalgona whipped treat for a fun (& gorgeous) tropical drink! It''s easy to make (5-10 min) & tastes incredible!
1tablespoonsugargranulated white, turbinado, or cane
½teaspoonorange extractor flavor
½cupmilkI used coconut milk, but any kind works
¼cuporange juiceif using fresh oranges, add a pinch of zest, too
Instructions
Whip the egg white (or aquafaba) until it is frothy and mostly stiff with a whisk, hand mixer, or handheld frother. Add the sugar and whip until stiff peaks form and it sticks to your whisk. Add in the extract and whip again to mix and make sure the peaks are stiff.
Mix the milk and orange juice in a glass with the zest if you are using a fresh orange.
Top with the whipped orange floof and enjoy!
Notes
Do not add the orange extract until instructed or the egg whites will not properly whip. The powder will weigh the mixture down too much to froth properly.Sugar: this recipe works best with fine, granulated sugar. But it also works with many other sugars. Make sure the egg white/aquafaba is stiff before adding the sugar, especially if using a heavy sugar like coconut sugar.Aquafaba is the liquid left when you strain chickpeas from a can. Eating any part of an egg raw can present a health and safety problem, as raw eggs do carry bacteria. If you'd rather not take the risk, buying eggs that have been pasteurized (look out for that on the label) or liquid egg whites in a carton, as these are always pasteurized, is a good compromise.You don't need the extra froth assist from the egg white (or aquafaba) when making Dalgona coffee since there are stabilizers in instant coffee.*When using aquafaba, adding ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar will get you firmer peaks in your mixture. It works great with and without, but if you prefer stiffer peaks, add the cream of tartar.
