Vanilla Cinnamon Whipped Coffee: Your New Morning Obsession

GUYS. This whipped coffee with vanilla and cinnamon is THE BEST. You didn't know you needed this coffee update until now, but now you can't live without it. I knew I was going to have a moment as soon as the creamy coffee fluff hit my warm cinnamon-vanilla milk. There was peace in the world as I watched that coffee cloud slowly melt into the milk. 

Yes, coffee is pretty much my love language. It's the first thing I think about when I wake up and the last thing I want before I go to sleep. But this? This coffee isn't like other coffee. There's something sweet, something spicy, something creamy, and something whipped that makes every sip feel like a treat. You don't need an espresso machine or coffee training—all you need is a frother!

So, let's talk about how to make this dreamy mix because you'll be hooked after one taste.

The Secret Combo: Why This Coffee Is Everything

  1. Fluffy Coffee Goodness: Imagine a rich, velvety cloud of coffee goodness floating on top of your spiced milk. It’s like a cozy blanket for your taste buds. You get the perfect mix of strong coffee flavor and creamy, fluffy texture in every sip.
  2. Vanilla and Cinnamon, a Match Made in Heaven: I’m a firm believer that cinnamon makes everything better, and when you mix it with vanilla? Ugh, it’s pure bliss. You get that warm, comforting vibe that’s perfect for any time of day, whether it’s the crack of dawn or your 3 PM slump.
  3. Quick and Easy: We’re talking no-fuss, no mess. Just whisk, mix, and sip. The whole process takes like, five minutes, but it feels like you’ve treated yourself to a fancy coffeehouse drink.
  4. Customizable AF: Want it sweeter? Add more sugar. Feeling extra? Top it with whipped cream. Dairy-free? Go for almond or oat milk. This coffee is yours to play with, so get creative!
Ingredients to use for making Vanilla Cinnamon Dalgona Coffee.

Ingredients

  • 1 Cup Almond Milk (or Any Milk You Love)
  • 2 Tablespoons Boiling Water
  • 1 Tablespoon Granulated Sugar
  • 2 Teaspoons Instant Coffee
  • 1/8 Teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
  • 1/8 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • Ice (Optional)

How to Make Vanilla Cinnamon Whipped Coffee?

Step 1: Whisk Your Coffee into a Fluffy Cloud

Start with the boiling water, sugar, and instant coffee in a bowl. Now, it’s time to whip! Grab your electric frother (or a whisk if you’re feeling old-school) and go to town. Whisk until the mixture is light, fluffy, and holds its shape—like a coffee cloud you want to dive into. It should take just a couple of minutes, but the transformation is amazing.

Step 2: Mix Up Your Milk

In your favorite glass, combine the milk, vanilla, and ground cinnamon. Please give it a good stir. You can use hot milk for a cozy, warming drink or cold milk if you’re in the mood for an iced treat. It’s all about that flavor blend—sweet, spicy, creamy goodness.

Step 3: Combine and Enjoy!

Pour the whipped coffee on top of your cinnamon vanilla milk. I like to spoon it on gently and watch as it slowly starts to swirl into the milk. It’s oddly satisfying, and you know the first sip is going to be magic. If you’re making it iced, add a handful of ice cubes before pouring in the coffee. Top with a sprinkle of extra cinnamon because you’re fancy like that.
