Hot Coffee Recipe

Making a perfect cup of hot coffee at home is both simple and satisfying. This homemade hot coffee is perfect for a cosy morning or a relaxing afternoon break. Not only does it save time, but it also offers a quick solution to satisfy your cravings. This quick hot coffee recipe is inspired by Dassana Amit. Here's a simple recipe for making the perfect cup of instant hot coffee at home

How To Make Hot Coffee

1. Begin by taking a cup or coffee mug. Add 2 tablespoons of instant coffee granules and 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar to the cup. Instant coffee works best for this method, as it dissolves quickly and creates a rich coffee flavour. The sugar will help balance the bitterness of the coffee.

2. Pour approximately 1/4 cup of hot water into the cup with the coffee and sugar. The water should be just off the boil to ensure the coffee granules dissolve completely. Stir the mixture well until the coffee and sugar are fully dissolved. This step helps to create a smooth and rich coffee base.

3. Using a spoon or a small whisk, beat the coffee mixture vigorously for about 1-2 minutes. This helps to create a frothy and creamy consistency. The beating process helps to combine the coffee and sugar.

4. While you’re preparing the coffee mixture, heat 1 cup of milk. You can do this using a small saucepan on the stove. Heat the milk over medium heat until it’s hot but not boiling.

5. Once the milk is heated, pour it into the cup with the beaten coffee mixture. Stir gently to combine. The milk will create a creamy texture, blending seamlessly with the frothy coffee base. If you prefer a stronger coffee flavour, you can adjust the amount of milk to your taste.

6. For an extra touch of flavour, you can sprinkle a pinch of cocoa powder on top of the coffee.

7. Your hot coffee is now ready to enjoy.

Tips for the Perfect Hot Coffee

1. Use high-quality instant coffee for the best flavour. Experiment with different brands to find your favourite.

2. For a richer texture, consider frothing the milk before adding it to the coffee mixture. You can use a frother or whisk to achieve this.
