From Kopi to Kori-Kohi: 6 Other Ways To Make Your Coffee in the Morning (That Isn’t Dalgona Coffee)

Are you tired of having the same cup of coffee every single morning? Or you’ve already tried the Dalgona Coffee trend and whisked until your fingers blistered? If you answered yes to both questions, we’ve got a couple caffeinated solutions for you.

With the extension of enhanced community quarantine, the simple joy of switching up your cup of joe will help you stay sane throughout the next few weeks. Since you’re running out of things to do anyway, might as well dive into these interesting coffee tricks!

If you’re a UCC regular, you’re probably already familiar with the Kori-Kohi. It’s a type of iced coffee that’s equal parts delectable and Instagrammable. Toss the ice coffee cubes in a tall glass, pour in your warm milk - and voila! You’ve leveled up both your coffee and Instagram game!

You’ll need to bring out your whisk for this one again! Whoever said Koreans invented whipped coffee obviously never heard of the Austrian’s traditional cup of joe. Einspanner is just as fancy as it sounds - so for slower mornings when you can alot some extra time to whip up this concoction, we recommend you try it!

Singaporean Kopi can be crafted in various ways, but the most traditional cup is pretty straight to the point. Instead of using creamer, milk or sugar in your coffee, you can swap all that out with some condensed milk. It sounds rich, creamy and straight up sinful, but give it a shot! Top it off with some ice and you’ve got Kopi Peng.

Kopi Peng is essentially 80% coffee, 20% condensed milk, and ice cubes!

Egg and coffee? Don’t knock it ‘till you try it! If you’re not sure it goes together, well there’s no better time than quarantine to find out. This style of coffee is very popular in Vietnam, but was introduced by the French way back when. That’s a whole lot of history to have in a cup of coffee - and if the recipe has survived for decades, we’d like to think it’s worth a try. 

It’s time to ditch regular milk for this one. Instead of milk or creamer, this Vietnamese-style cup of coffee is made with frozen coconut milk. With warmer days approaching, doesn’t this sound like a dream?

Matcha lattes are typically done without a single drop of coffee. But for days when you feel like you need that caffeine fix, but don’t feel like sacrificing your daily matcha - this easy coffee trick will allow you the best of both worlds.
