In a big bowl add ¼ cup sugar, ¼ cup instant coffee powder. Add around half a tablespoon of water in the bowl.
With a spoon or a whisker, whisk the coffee mixture. Whisk the mixture until it becomes light. It will take time to whisk the mixture. Whisk it for around 10-12 minutes.
In case you have a hand blender then you can use that as well. It will take around 5-6 minutes when using a hand blender or whisk to make a light brew.
Whisk the brew until hard peaks of coffee are formed or until the color of the brew has changed from dark brown to light brown. The brew should be airy and light in its consistency.
