Vietnamese-styled iced coffee is made with very slowly-brewed espresso mixed with sweetened condensed milk.
The bracing and highly caffeinated java is balanced out by the sugary and rich dairy.
To try this drink a la Starbucks, order a quad espresso (which means four shots) in a venti-sized cup with extra ice,
Three pumps of white mocha syrup, and a topping of vanilla sweet cream foam.
The foam on top helps to mimic the rich texture of condensed milk.
When you think about it, four espresso shots and a few pumps of syrup don't equate to a large volume,
Vietnamese coffee's incredibly strong coffee and super sweet milk in one cup undoubtedly stunned you.
