  • Sprinkle gelatin over coffee and let sit for 5 minutes.
    Hands vigorously whisk a steaming mixture in a stainless steel pot on the stove. The liquid is frothy and thickening, with warm light casting a cozy glow on the scene, capturing the intensity of the whisking step in dessert making.
  • milk and sugar until sugar dissolves, avoid boiling.
  • Mix gelatin coffee with the warm milk mixture.
    A person in a brown apron strains a creamy coffee mixture into small glass bowls. The liquid pours smoothly through a fine mesh strainer, filling each container on a round marble tray. A jar of milk and folded napkin sit nearby, creating a calm, precise kitchen prep moment.
  • Pour mixture into glasses and chill for at least 4 hours.
