Espresso Coffee is a frothy & creamy hand beaten coffee which resembles Espresso Coffee from Coffee Machine. Learn to make easy Espresso Coffee at home with step by step pictures.
I am a complete coffee person and can’t get the day going without my morning or evening coffee (yes I restrict myself to one coffee per day) and instant coffee is always my preference. Even when my days are dull, it lifts up and refreshes my mood when I have a cup of coffee.

About Espresso Coffee
Indian Espresso Coffee is made by continuously beating coffee powder, sugar & water to a frothy mix and then blended with milk. This coffee is rich and creamy making it perfect for a hot sip.
When I saw this post, I immediately bookmarked but waited all these days for a proper coffee mug purchase and finally here I am with this post. I never thought making espresso coffee at home without the machine is such an easy task, I am sure I’ll make it more often now. Do try and enjoy!

Espresso Coffee Ingredients
- Instant Coffee Powder – You can use any instant coffee powder of your choice.
- Sugar – Granulated white sugar is preferred.
- Milk – Boil milk and pour it hot. Use full cream milk.
- Water – You can use hot or warm water.
How to make Espresso Recipe Step by Step
1.To a coffee mug, add coffee powder, sugar and water.
2.With a spoon, start beating it vigorously to incorporate as much air as you can. Only beating continuously and vigorously will give you the whipped frothy coffee – sugar mix. Do not stop till it turns pale brown in color. The sugar will not be dissolved completely so don’t worry about that and beat well. The more you beat, the mix will become pale brown in color. Boil milk and add it to the mug containing whipped coffe-sugar paste. Stir well with a spoon.
Sprinkle coco powder and serve hot.
Expert Tips
- For making the espresso for more than 1 cup, prepare the coffee-sugar paste in a bowl. Divide the paste equally into each coffee mug and pour hot milk. Stir and serve.
- I sprinkled coffee powder itself, you can sprinkle either cocoa powder or coffee powder as per your preference.
Serving and Storage
Serve espresso coffee hot. You can serve it with cookies or biscuits. Prepare the coffee sugar paste and store in fridge for up to a month and use it when needed.

Sharmile,
There is typo in the method, it should be coffee powder not coco powder you are adding with sugar. If I read the ingredients correctly. Delicious coffee love to have sip.
