In a small bowl, combine 2 teaspoons of instant coffee, 2 teaspoons of honey, and 2 teaspoons of hot water. Whisk vigorously with a hand mixer or whisk until the mixture turns light, airy, and forms stiff peaks, resembling a fluffy mousse.
In a blender, add the mashed half banana, 225 ml of milk, and 22.5 grams of vanilla protein powder. Blend on medium speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy, ensuring the banana is fully incorporated.
Fill a tall glass about three‑quarters full with ice cubes to chill the base. Pour the blended banana‑protein mixture over the ice, leaving space for the frothy coffee layer.
Gently spoon the prepared Dalgona coffee foam onto the surface of the drink, creating a distinct layered look. If desired, sprinkle toasted almond flakes over the foam for added texture and nutty flavor.
Serve immediately with a straw, allowing the drinker to mix the foam into the creamy base before sipping. Enjoy the dessert‑like experience right away for the best texture and flavor.
