What's Different About Vietnamese Coffee?
The main difference between American iced coffee and Vietnamese iced coffee (also called Cà Phê Sữa Đá) is how the coffee is brewed. Vietnamese coffee is brewed using a Phin filter. Coffee and hot water are added to the filter causing coffee drops to drip through the filter into your glass. This way of brewing creates a stronger brew and taste, but the use of condensed milk helps to sweeten the coffee. You can brew whatever type of Vietnamese coffee you'd like, but typically a darker roast is used.
