How to make Dalgona latte

• 1

  Cook the sugar syrup

  First, place a pot on the stove with 100g of sugar and 50ml of water, and cook the sugar syrup on low heat for about 5 – 7 minutes.

  After the sugar dissolves and turns a brown color, add 1/2 tablespoon of baking soda, and use a flat whisk to stir for 3 – 5 minutes until you see the candy mixture become fluffy, then turn off the heat.

  Tip:

  • To avoid burning the sugar syrup, you should use a light-colored pot for easier observation.
  • When cooking the sugar syrup, do not stir too much; just hold the pot handle and gently swirl it.
