Vietnamese iced coffee and a big bowl of pho absolutely goated

I worked a Cuban restaurant and coffee shop owned by a close friend. I’d like to say that you are the first coffee influencer to have given cafe cubano the treatment it deserves. It requires a darker bean than most coffee snobs would ever look for. Also, while moka pot may be traditional, it’s completely common and expected now to use espresso if possible (at least from our Cuban customers). We would do roughly 4 parts sugar to a double shot and it stores well up to 12 hours, so if you’re making a large batch, make it all at once. Thank you for putting a spotlight on the most underrated coffee drink in the world.

If you do make it with espresso, it 100% needs a bit more of the sugar than you’d expect to be distinct from a doppio.

A cafecito is straight rocket fuel. My ex roommate is Cuban and would make them for me every day when he got home from work and I was getting up. One of my absolute favorites.

Yuenyueng is something we'll never make at home cuz its so much trouble. Brewing tea and Coffee at the same time... Coffeeshops always have a pot of Coffee and a pot of Tea on the warmer so they can make it on the fly. I'll always order one when I'm at the coffeeshop.

My grandfather ran a street cafe in Hong Kong his whole life, and Yien Yeung was one of his favorite drinks ever. My aunt still runs the cafe, and I can confirm that the recipes do change vendor by vendor. Yien Yeung is definitely an HK street staple!

For yuenyeung, some people do the cold but iceless version where the cup is put into a bucket of ice to cool it down without diluting the drink itself.

For anybody interested in the ca phe sua da but don't have the Vietnamese brewer or coffee, Cafe Bonbon is a Valencian region coffee drink from Spain which is prepared almost in the idential way but with regular espresso. Amazing on it's own stired, or served with ice for the summer. So substituting the vietnamese method for simple espresso isn't a fake version, it's legit and simply traditional elsewhere.

Hongkonger here! 🇭🇰 glad you enjoyed the yuenyang (milk tea with coffee) 🤩

I grew up in Miami, and worked at a movie theater with a "Cuban window" next door. All they served were 2oz ramekins of cafecitos all day long. Working a close to open shift required us to buy a round for the crew, and it was AMAZING. I make mine at home with cafe bustelo and brown sugar. *chefs kiss*. Thanks for doing this!

Lately I've been making a lot of Vietnamese style coffees at my house and found that if you where to do it like in the first coffee, throw it over ice in a shaker with about 20-30g of sweetened condensed milk, shake it pretty vigorously you get a nice tall glass and fill it up with ice before pouring that on top, you get a shaken latte with subtle sweetness, great coffee flavor, and a tasty foam top

As a first gen Cuban American, I have to say thank you for so beautifully and properly showing how to make a true cafecito. You are the first non-Cuban I’ve seen make it perfectly. Gracias!!

[BiBye]

Love yuanyang ♡ half of the time I prep a half gallon pitcher of black tea and coffee and add the milk as I prepare it. For sweetness, I'll actually convert it to a bubble tea and make a classic brown sugar black tapioca. Nice to see it showcases here!

You are one of my favorite YouTube channels. I am on maternity leave so I'm watching more YouTube than ever. It makes me feel like I'm not wasting my day since I'm learning something. I'm just sitting here eating my baby all day, so I tried to stick to educational channels. Thank you for being one of those!!

[marimayaflor]

As a Cuban-American, I was happy to see you prepare our cafecito! Welcome to the familia. 😁 While you can use any kind of sugar, I suspect that alternative sugars like turbinado might make it difficult to make the espumita. But I've never tried, so maybe there's a video idea in there?

[Jasonbrownneedscoffee]

Ive been nagging james Hoffman to do a video on the Vietnamese coffe drink for a long time now. He still never has. Im glad you did

[ariahmak]

Oh wow! I didn't realize I was early until I snuck down to the comments section. That being said, thank you for everything you post!! I found you from your cozy/short form content and have very much enjoyed the atmosphere of your channel. You are adding a welcoming and knowledgeable space to YouTube and that is worth so many thanks. Have a great day, Morgan! 😊

Since you have a phin should do a series on Vietnamese coffee drinks. Ca phe sua da is the most basic, but there are a whole world out there egg coffee, salted cream coffee, coconut coffee, cream coffee. Some places even have durian coffee, and it is delicious

[lildigiboy]

your pronunciation was actually spot on for the cafe sua da props where props deserved

[brentroman]

Thanks for the vid.
I really like the backdrop space behind you. The green plants really make for a nice atmosphere. Kudos.
For the Vietnamese caphe sua da- little life hack here: if you order it in a cafe, you don’t always get to customize how much sweetened condensed milk is used. But, often it stays on the bottom of the glass and is not incorporated until it is stirred. So- you can sorta play with the sweetness level by playing with how much you stir and incorporate.
For another international coffee drink, try out Vietnamese egg coffee. (Best hot and not iced though)

The Shakerato is SO GOOD. It can be done with any container that is leak proof and sturdy enough to shake; usually a blender bottle.

I use my NutriBullet Blender Cup to do it.

I also use my homemade super concentrated sugar syrup.
