How to Make Virginia Vapor

In a mixing bowl, combine 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1/2 cup heavy cream, and 2 tablespoons granulated sugar.
Whip the cream mixture until soft peaks form using a hand mixer or whisk.
In a separate clean, grease-free bowl, beat 1 large egg white until stiff, glossy peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream mixture into the beaten egg whites until just combined. Be careful not to deflate the egg whites.
Fill each mug about 1/3 to 1/2 full with the vanilla cream mixture.
Add hot coffee to fill the mug, leaving a little space at the top.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Virginia Vapor!
