How to make Tik Tok’s viral whipped Dalgona latte without eggs…
The result of mixing chickpea water, sugar, matcha, and almond milk is unexpectedly creamy, smooth, and delightful!
The thick fluffy egg white version holds it’s form better, it’s true.
Even so, I prefer the convenience, smooth texture, and over all flavor of the aquafaba latte- it’s less rich and heavy, if that makes sense.
To make the extra fluffy version with eggs whites:
- Heat 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup water together in a small saucepan on the stove for 3-5 minutes.
- Mix 2 egg whites in an electric mixer until they form still peaks. Mixing on low, pour sugar/water mixture and matcha tea into egg whites. Mix until just combined and serve over milk.
Whipped Dalgona Matcha Latte
How to make Tik Tok's viral whipped Dalgona latte without eggs! This is my vegan version of the mesmerizing thick and fluffy Dalgona matcha latte. It's smooth, creamy, and really fluffy! You only need a few ingredients that probably already have in the pantry!
Servings 4 servings
Prep Time 5 minutes
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup aquafaba the liquid from canned chickpeas
- 4-8 tablespoons sugar to taste
- 4 servings/teaspoons matcha tea powder to taste
- 4 cups almond milk or other nut milk
Instructions
- Drain a can of chickpeas and put the liquid called aquafaba in a bowl and whip with an electric mixer until white and fluffy- you will know when you are done whipping when the quafaba forms stiff white peaks.
- Slowly add sugar and matcha tea powder and blend on low until just combined- do not over mix or the aquafaba will loose its fluffiness the longer you mix!
- For an iced matcha latte, fill serving glasses with ice cubes and almond milk. For a hot matcha latte, heat almond milk and put in mugs.
- Pour fluffy tea mixture over milk and stir well until combined- if you don't combine the tea with the milk well enough, the aquafaba and matcha taste will be too strong, so I suggest mixing it well before drinking!
