Egg Coffee

Egg coffee, a creamy and indulgent drink from Vietnam, blends hot coffee with a whipped mixture of egg yolk and sweetened condensed milk to create a dessert-like froth. Served hot or iced, it’s rich, smooth, and unlike any other drink in the coffee world. Often compared to tiramisu in liquid form, Vietnamese egg coffee dates back to the 1940s when milk shortages inspired inventive alternatives. Today, it’s considered a national specialty and is gaining global popularity among adventurous drinkers who seek comfort and novelty in one cup. This drink combines tradition, culinary ingenuity, and visual appeal—making it a standout offering for specialty cafés or cultural menus. It’s especially appealing to those who love custard-based desserts, cappuccino textures, and rich coffee flavors.
