How to Make Instant Coffee Espresso
- In a mug, combine 1-2 teaspoons of instant coffee powder and 1-2 teaspoons of granulated sugar (adjust to your sweetness preference).
- Add 1-2 teaspoons of water. Stir vigorously with a spoon until a smooth, whitish paste forms. This step helps dissolve the coffee and sugar completely.
- In a small saucepan, heat 1/2 cup of milk (dairy or non-dairy) and 1/4 cup of water until steaming and hot. Do not boil.
- Optionally, for a less milky coffee, heat 3/4 cup water and add a splash (1-2 teaspoons) of milk directly to the mug in the next step.
- Pour the hot milk mixture into the mug from a height of about 6 inches to create a frothy effect.
- (Optional) Sprinkle a pinch of unsweetened cocoa powder or cinnamon powder on top for added flavor and visual appeal.
- Stir gently and enjoy immediately!
