Equipment

  • Hand Mixer
  • Large Mixing Bowl
  • Freezer-Safe Container

Ingredients
  

  • 25 g instant coffee (about 3 tablespoons)
  • 1 cup white sugar or Lakanto monkfruit sweetener
  • 1/2 cup hot water (not boiling)

Instructions
 

  • Combine instant coffee, sugar (or monkfruit), and hot water in a large bowl. Whip with a hand mixer on low speed then gradually increase to high. Whip until stiff peaks form, about 4 minutes. The mixture should be pale brown and thick, holding its shape when you lift the beaters.
  • Scoop the whipped mixture into a freezer-safe container. Use a spatula to get every last bit. Smooth the top gently so it freezes evenly.
  • Seal the container and freeze for at least 8 hours or overnight. The mixture will be solid but scoopable, like a firm frozen mousse.
  • Let the container sit at room temperature for 2 minutes before scooping. Drop 2-3 tablespoons of frozen whipped coffee into a glass of cold milk, iced almond or oat milk, or blend into a frozen latte. Enjoy!

Notes

Use a dry scoop to avoid ice crystals. Store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 3 months. For a lower sugar version, use monkfruit sweetener — it whips slightly softer but works beautifully. Scale the serving to your caffeine tolerance: 1 tablespoon has about half the caffeine of an espresso shot.
