뜻
Coffee mixed with condensed milk.
문화적 배경
Coffee is often served with a side of iced tea (trà đá) for free. This is used to cleanse the palate after the sweet coffee. People here prefer 'cà phê sữa đá' in tall glasses with lots of crushed ice, reflecting the energetic and hot atmosphere of the city. Coffee is often served in smaller glasses, and the term 'nâu' is preferred over 'sữa'. It's often enjoyed more slowly in smaller, tucked-away cafes. In places like 'Little Saigon' in the US, cà phê sữa is a key link to heritage, often made with Longevity brand condensed milk.
Stir well!
The condensed milk sits at the bottom. You must stir it thoroughly with your spoon before drinking.
Caffeine Alert
Vietnamese Robusta is very strong. If you aren't used to it, you might get 'say cà phê' (coffee drunk/jitters).

The Phin Wait
If your coffee comes with a filter on top, don't rush. Watching it drip is part of the meditation.
