1 – Cracking Latte: A Breakthrough in Viral Coffee
The most viral coffee trend of 2024 is the cracking latte, with its highest trending videos amassing almost 50 million views. This Korean-inspired latte is encased in a shell of hard chocolate which snaps when squeezed, creating a ‘cracking’ effect in the cup. With commenters noting ‘the texture and colour look delish’ and ‘I need this daily’ – expect this showstopper to re-emerge once winter passes!
2 – Coffee Ice Balls: A Cool Hack with Hot Buzz
Back in August, celebrity chef Jamie Oliver jumped on the trend by sharing his trick to ensure leftover coffee doesn’t go to waste. His iced coffee balls and cubes hack got social media buzzing, with over 41 million views on TikTok. This simple yet brilliant hack keeps coffee flavourful and waste free – a trend as practical as it is popular.
3 – Scallion Latte: Love It or Loathe It
This coffee concoction divided opinions more than any other on the list; the scallion (or spring onion) iced latte. Layering the latte with spring onions between dashes of milk, espresso and ice cubes results in a coffee favoured by few. Originating in China, the surprising combination was picked up globally for its shock factor. This trend’s top videos garnered over 19 million views, but didn’t necessarily leave people coming back for seconds.
4 – Ca Phe Muoi: A Salty Surprise
Salted coffee might sound odd, but the Vietnamese Ca Phe Muoi has proved it’s worth its salt. This huge trend received over 17 million views among its top trending videos in 2024. Delicious, unique and surprising, it’s one trend that might outlast the rest..
5 – Kinder Bueno Latte: Dangerously Good
In fifth place is the viral M&S inspired Kinder Bueno latte, with over 11 million views on TikTok. This tasty combination was reported as ‘dangerous’ by many for its creamy and moreish taste, proving that dessert and coffee are truly a match made in heaven.
