Ingredients

☕️ 3 heaped teaspoons Illy dark Vietnamese coffee

🥚 2 egg yolks

🥄 2 teaspoons F&N sweetened condensed milk

🔥 Hot water

🥛 Optional: Carnation Evaporated Creamer

Instructions

1- Prepare the coffee:

Add 3 heaped teaspoons of Illy ground coffee into the Vietnamese coffee filter.
Gently press using the filter's clamp to compact.

2- Pre-warm the mug:

Pour hot kettle water into the glass mug to warm it.
Discard the water.

3- Initial coffee soak:

Position the filter on the warmed mug.
Add a small amount of hot water on the coffee grounds to moisten.
Wait about 2 minutes.

4- Brew the coffee:

Pour more hot water in the filter, filling it up to two-thirds.
Cover with the lid and let the coffee drip slowly into the mug.

5- Prepare egg foam:

Separate the egg yolks and place them in a small bowl.
Add the condensed milk.

6- Whisk the mixture:

Use a manual whisk or KitchenAid-style electronic hand mixer.
Vigorously whisk the yolks and milk until the mix becomes pale, frothy, and thick.

7- Assemble the coffee:

Once the coffee has dripped, carefully remove the filter.
Pour the egg foam over the coffee slowly using a spatula or a spoon to keep the layers intact.

8- Optional step:

For additional creaminess, pour Carnation Evaporated Creamer into the cup slowly to form another layer beneath the foam.

9- Enjoy:

Stir the layers gently with a spoon to blend flavors before sipping.
