In the comments, several users seemed to be interested in this recipe and those who had already tried it shared their thoughts. A few suggested substitutions for certain ingredients. However, some people were not convinced by the idea. Read selected reactions from Instagram below:
“I have made it several times and I love it.”
“I’ve been doing this for years instead of sugar. It’s yummy!!”
“THAT’S just Dalgona coffee with honey. Calm down.”
“If you whip real honey it tastes awful because the flavour of honey dominates, it tastes well only if you get honey mixed with sugar. Saying from personal experience.”
“Instead of instant coffee how about using brewed coffee in place of hot water? Make it strong enough.”
I use Maple sugar rather than raw honey to not kill the good properties of the honey with the “boiling water. SOOOO tasty.”
“That’s so good as frosting on a cupcake!!”
“Whoa whoa whoa that said Decaf!!!!! This is not coffee and I cannot finish this video.”
