Instructions

Step 1: Place 3 tbsp coarsely ground Vietnamese coffee into a traditional filter or any drip coffee maker. Pour 6 oz boiling water over the grounds and allow coffee to drip slowly, about 4-5 minutes, producing a strong brew.
Step 2: In a shaker or a large jar with a tight lid, combine the brewed coffee and 3 tbsp sweetened condensed milk. Shake vigorously for 30 seconds until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.
Step 3: Fill a tall glass with 1 cup ice cubes. Pour the shaken coffee mixture over the ice and stir lightly to chill evenly. Serve immediately with a straw.
