Recipe GLPRb457b4471e4a17
A refreshing Vietnamese beverage combining strong, cold brewed coffee with sweetened condensed milk and smooth yogurt. The creamy, tangy yogurt creates a delightful layers effect as it mingles with the rich coffee, while ice keeps the drink perfectly chilled. This simple yet elegant drink is naturally sweet and requires just five minutes to prepare.

Ingredients
½ cup Strong brewed coffee, cooled
1 tablespoon Sweetened condensed milk
Ice cubes
⅓ cup Vietnamese-style yogurt
Directions
Brew strong coffee using your preferred Vietnamese coffee maker or standard brewing method, using approximately 1/2 cup of coffee grounds to water ratio that produces a robust flavor. Allow the coffee to cool to room temperature or chill it in the refrigerator.
Fill a tall glass with ice cubes until about three-quarters full.
Pour the cooled strong coffee over the ice.
Add the sweetened condensed milk to the coffee and stir well to combine, allowing the sweetness to distribute evenly.
Top the coffee mixture with the Vietnamese yogurt, spooning it gently over the top. Serve with a long spoon, stirring as you drink to blend the creamy yogurt with the coffee, or enjoy the layered effect by drinking slowly to experience the distinct flavors.
Comments
All four ingredients are stocked at every Charlotte chain, making this a no-trip grab from your pantry or a convenience-store run. At roughly $1.50 per serving (condensed milk and yogurt do the heavy lifting on cost), it beats a café cold brew by half. The five-minute claim is honest—brew while the glass chills—and it requires zero attention once assembled. This is a summer weeknight winner that reheats poorly but isn't meant to, and it works as a dessert-coffee hybrid that feels like a small indulgence without the price tag.
