Jump to RecipeBefore we dive into the recipe, let's talk about the key ingredient - coffee. Vietnamese coffee is typically made with dark roast beans, giving it a strong and bold flavor. However, you can use any type of ground coffee that you prefer. Just make sure it is finely ground to achieve the right consistency for the coffee.
The first step to making Vietnamese iced coffee is brewing the coffee. You can use a coffee maker, French press, coffee filter, or even a coffee sock for this step. Simply add 1 tablespoon of finely ground coffee to your chosen brewing method and pour 1 cup of hot water over it. Let it steep for a few minutes until the coffee is fully brewed.
Once the coffee is brewed, pour it into a glass filled with ice. Then, add 2 tablespoons of condensed milk to the coffee. This is what gives Vietnamese iced coffee its unique and sweet flavor. You can adjust the amount of condensed milk to your liking, depending on how sweet you want your coffee to be.
Now, all that's left to do is give the coffee and condensed milk a good mix until they are well combined. You can also add more ice if you prefer a colder drink. Once mixed, sit back, and enjoy your homemade Vietnamese iced coffee!
This easy Vietnamese iced coffee recipe is perfect for those hot summer days or when you need a little pick-me-up.
