Vietnamese Phin

Ca Phe Sua Da

Vietnamese Phin Traditional by Gota Team

Classic Vietnamese ca phe sua da pairs a concentrated phin drip with sweetened condensed milk and ice. The goal is a cold, creamy cup that keeps bold roast depth and body while balancing bitterness with caramel-like sweetness.

Notes

Brew directly onto 2 tbsp condensed milk and stir only after the phin finishes, then add hard, fresh ice. If the drink becomes watery too quickly, use larger cubes or chill the glass rather than overtightening the press.
