Vietnamese iced coffee, known as cà phê sữa đá, is a delicious blend of strong coffee and sweetened condensed milk served over ice.
To prepare this beverage, gather the necessary ingredients: coarsely ground coffee, sweetened condensed milk, and ice cubes for serving.
Use a dark roast coffee, which provide a bold flavor that complements the sweetness of the milk.
Brew the coffee using a Vietnamese coffee filter or phin, allowing it to drip slowly over the sweetened condensed milk.
After brewing, mix the hot coffee thoroughly with the sweetened condensed milk to achieve a creamy consistency before serving.
Pour the mixture over ice in a tall glass for a refreshing drink, perfect for hot days or as an afternoon pick-me-up.
Vietnamese iced coffee can be enjoyed any time of day, providing a delightful balance of rich flavors and sweetness in every sip.
