Have you ever been so exhausted in the morning that you dropped eggs in your coffee? It sounds crazy…but apparently it’s the latest coffee trend.
It’s called Vietnamese egg coffee, and it’s actually been around since the 1940s. It started in Hanoi, at a time when fresh milk was hard to find. A bartender at a hotel came up with the idea of whipping egg yolks with sweetened condensed milk to create a creamy, foamy topping for strong coffee. And apparently, it tastes like tiramisu. You can make it at home with just one egg yolk, a couple tablespoons of condensed milk, and strong coffee. If nothing else, it’s yet another way to “protein-maxx” your morning routine.
