Decadent Vietnamese Iced Coffee (Cà Phê Sữa Đá')
Sweet, rich, and creamy, Vietnamese iced coffee is a decadent treat. And you don't have to fly to Vietnam to try it! Here's an easy recipe to make Vietnamese iced coffee at home.
Equipment
- Glass
- Drip coffee maker, preferably with cold coffee settings OR Vietnamese phin
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Vietnamese ground coffee or dark roast coffee beans
- 8 ounces cold filtered water
- 1 spoonful sweetened condensed milk to taste
- 1/2 cup coffee ice cubes or regular ice
Instructions
- Put the half cup of ice into the glass you are drinking your iced coffee from. Then place this directly under the pour spout, if you can. If you are using a carafe instead, put the glass aside for later.
- Scoop two to three tablespoons of the Vietnamese ground coffee into the coffee filter. If you want to make multiple servings, add more, sticking to the proportion of eight ounces of water for every two to three tablespoons of coffee.
- If your machine has an iced coffee option, select it and let the brewing begin! Otherwise, brew a cup of coffee as usual, straight onto the ice. Once it has finished brewing, remove the glass from under the drip spout.
- Drizzle a spoonful of the sweetened condensed milk over the coffee and ice. Add one more spoonful if you want it sweeter. Stir vigorously and enjoy!
