Coffee served with milk or creamer
Kultureller Hintergrund
Kopi susu is often served with 'tubruk' style, meaning the grounds are at the bottom. Don't drink the last sip! Try 'Kopi Joss', a version of kopi susu where a hot coal is dropped into the glass to neutralize acidity. Aceh is famous for 'Kopi Sanger', a specific ratio of coffee, condensed milk, and sugar that is 'pulled' to create foam. The 'Es Kopi Susu Gula Aren' trend started in Jakarta and has become a symbol of the modern Indonesian office worker.
Ordering Sweetness
If you don't want it too sweet, say 'kurang gula' (less sugar) or 'tidak pakai susu kental manis' (no condensed milk).
The Mud
Traditional kopi susu is 'tubruk'. Don't stir it too much right before drinking or you'll get a mouth full of grounds!
