In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin powder over 3 tablespoons of cold water and let it bloom for about 5 minutes.
In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, and granulated sugar. Split the vanilla bean lengthwise, scrape out the seeds, and add both the seeds and the pod to the mixture (or add vanilla extract if using).
Heat the cream mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar completely dissolves and the liquid is hot but not boiling.
Stir in the instant coffee powder until fully dissolved. Remove the saucepan from heat.
Take the bloomed gelatin and whisk it into the hot cream mixture until fully dissolved and no lumps remain. Remove the vanilla bean pod if used.
Carefully pour the panna cotta mixture into individual serving glasses, ramekins, or molds. Allow them to cool slightly at room temperature before covering and refrigerating.
Chill the panna cotta in the refrigerator for at least 4-6 hours, or until set. For best results, let it set overnight.
Before serving, optionally garnish with chocolate shavings or a dollop of whipped cream. Serve chilled for a delightful dessert.
