Vietnamese Ice Coffee Recipes

Steps:

• Place coffee grounds in a heatproof container. Slowly pour boiling water over the grounds in a circular motion to evenly saturate. Do not stir; let steep 5 minutes.
• Line a coffee cone with a paper filter and place the cone over another heatproof container.
• Slowly pour the steeped coffee through the filter, allowing all the liquid to drip through completely. (You should have about 2 cups of strong coffee. See Tip.) Discard the filter and coffee grounds. Stir the condensed milk into the coffee until well blended.
• Fill 4 glasses with ice cubes. Divide the coffee mixture among the glasses and serve immediately, or transfer to the refrigerator, where it will keep, covered, up to 3 days. Serve over ice.

Steps:

• There are two ways to make Vietnamese coffee. The simplest method is to steep coffee grounds in a heatproof container with 2/3 cup boiling water for 4 minutes. Pour through a coffee filter into a heatproof glass.
• Or use a metal filter, which we recommend. Bring 1 cup water to a boil. Remove top screen from filter, add coffee, then screw on top screen. Place filter over a heatproof 12-ounce glass or measuring cup.
• Pour a splash of the hot water into filter; this will allow the coffee grounds to bloom. When coffee begins to drip through, add enough water to reach top of filter. Place lid on filter and let coffee drip for 4 minutes. If coffee stops dripping sooner, gently loosen screw to relieve pressure.
• Stir in condensed milk until blended. Add ice, stir, and serve.

Steps:

• Put the condensed milk into a coffee cup. Place the filter on top of the cup. Unscrew the filter, add the coffee grounds, and screw the filter back on. Pour in enough boiling water to fill the filter. Close the lid and let the coffee slowly drip into the cup. Remove the filter and stir the coffee and milk together. Pour the coffee mixture into a glass of ice and stir to chill. Serve.

Steps:

• Brew coffee with water using your preferred method to make brewed coffee. Spoon 2 tablespoons of sweetened condensed milk into each of 4 coffee cups. Pour 1 cup of fresh hot coffee into each cup, and stir to dissolve the milk.
• Serve guests cups of coffee, and give each one a tall glass with 4 ice cubes, and a long handled spoon. Guests pour hot coffee over the ice cubes and stir briskly with the long handled spoon, making an agreeable clatter with the ice cubes to chill the coffee.
