Lizzo Failing at Making Dalgona Coffee Is the Most Relatable Thing a Celeb Has Done in Quarantine

Lizzo can win Grammys, play the flute, rap, help you find the will to live, and create a national stir just by standing up at a basketball game.

But she cannot make Fancy Internet Coffee by hand, and in this sense, she is just like all of us.

You perhaps know Fluffy Online Dessert Coffee by its official name: Dalgona coffee. It’s the handmade Korean trend that has become an international sensation during quarantine. Caffeine fiends and cool teens looking for a way to get nonboring coffee while staying at home developed this three-ingredient, whipped instant coffee, which you can make at home, following an easy recipe.

That is…if you have an electric mixer, you can easily make it at home. If you have only a whisk—or God forbid, a spoon—it’s not so easy. Stirring by hand just isn’t an efficient way to whip air into liquid (that’s why most people buy butter instead of churning it from heavy cream). You can make Dalgona coffee with a spoon or whisk, but only in the same way you can, technically, knit a tablecloth: It’s a fun activity if you’re in the mood, but time and space will likely lose all sense of meaning for you while you’re doing it. However, if you succeed, you will feel like a pioneer queen and be instantly vaulted into the next level of the quarantine simulation: i.e., baking your own bread. (Next thing you know, you’ll be whittling.)

Take it from Lizzo, who in a just world would win an Oscar for best Short Film for the video masterpiece in which she attempts Dalgona coffee. Captioned “Shit don’t work,” this TikTok has everything: scenic shots, a musical number, smash cuts, comedy, tragedy, and a twist ending worthy of M. Night Shyamalan.

You can watch her attempt here.

Lizzo, consider a hand mixer. And for anyone else planning to tough it out making hand-whipped Dalgona, your best bet is to switch mixing hands regularly (so you can get evenly ripped) and cue up a TV show or movie, ’cause you’re in it for the long haul. If you stream Hustlers when you start mixing, you’ll have a perfect cup of coffee by the time Lizzo starts dancing with Usher. Probably.
