Ingredients

Coffee:

  • 2 tablespoon Vietnamese ground coffee Cafe du Monde, or Trung Nguyen
  • ½ C hot water

Coconut slush:

  • 3 tablespoon coconut milk
  • 2 tablespoon hot water
  • 2 teaspoon sweetened condensed milk or to your taste
  • 1 ½ C ice

Instructions

Brew the Vietnamese coffee:

  • Place the coffee phin over a heat-resistant glass.
  • To the coffee phin filter "cup," add 2 tablespoons of coarse ground coffee.
  • Gently tap to ensure the coffee grounds are evenly spread out.
  • Place the top disc on and carefully screw it over the filter "cup" with your fingers.
  • Use a metal spoon and continue to tighten until you feel some resistance.
  • Pour about 1 tablespoon of hot boiling water into the coffee phin to bloom the coffee grounds and observe how quickly the water drips through. If it's dripping quickly, carefully use a spoon to tighten the filter.
  • (Note: the coffee filter is metal so it will be hot). If no coffee is dripping through, then carefully use the spoon to loosen the filter a bit.
  • When the coffee is dripping at an ideal slow rate, pour the rest of the hot water (it should take about 4-5 minutes for the coffee to finish dripping through) and place the cover over top.
  • Let the coffee cool.

Make the coconut slush:

  • In a small mug, combine condensed milk, coconut milk and hot water.
  • Give it a stir.
  • Pour the coconut milk mixture into a blender and add ice.
  • Blend the mixture until it is snow-like and fluffy.

Assemble:

  • Pour the coconut slushy into chilled glasses and top with cooled coffee.
  • Enjoy immediately.
