Vietnamese Egg Latte

  • 2 tbsp Vietnamese coffee (if that’s not possible, dark-roast coffee is your next best bet)
  • 3 cups hot water (195 – 205 degrees Fahrenheit)
  • 1–3 tbsp condensed milk (it’s a little too sweet for me; I just use one)
  • 1 tbsp sugar (vanilla sugar if available)
  • 2 egg yolks
  • Make Vietnamese coffee with a phin placed over each coffee cup. Let drip 4 – 5 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, beat eggs with sugar till soft peaks form.
  • Fold in condensed milk carefully, to preserve the egg-sugar foam.
  • With coffee in the bottom of the cup, spoon the egg mixture carefully over the coffee.
  • Dust with cocoa powder or cinnamon if desired.
