    History of Vietnamese Coffee

    In 1857, coffee was first introduced to Vietnam by a French Catholic priest who brought a Coffea arabica tree to northern Vietnam. Through the plantation system, the Vietnamese coffee industry was developed.

    In the 19th century, Vietnam was a French colony therefore the coffee drink was usually made with dark roast coffee in a French drip filter. At that time, there was a scarcity of fresh milk so the French and Vietnamese began to use sweetened condensed milk with dark roast coffee. Nowadays, Vietnamese coffee often uses Robusta coffee beans.

    The French may have introduced coffee to the Vietnamese but through the years, they have specially made it their own. Also, Vietnam is now the second-largest coffee producer and exporter worldwide. Just amazing!

    Health Benefits of Coffee:

    • Boosts energy levels.
    • Supports brain health.
    • Lowers risk of depression.
    • Promotes liver and heart health.
    • Protects against Type 2 diabetes.

    Tips and Procedures:

    • Feel free to add vanilla extract to this recipe.
    • For a vegan version, use dairy-free coconut condensed milk to mix in this coffee drink.
    • Be sure to mix layers 1 and 2 until well combined and allow the ice cream or cool whip slightly melt prior to scooping it into the molds.
    • If other ingredients are unavailable, a mixture of just brewed coffee and sweetened condensed milk can do.
    • It is best to use freshly ground coffee but you may use any coffee beans you like. You can also use espresso powder or instant coffee instead of brewing the coffee through the phin.
    • You can use any popsicle mold, like a silicone mold or small paper cups with popsicle sticks.
    • Storage: It is best to keep the popsicles in the freezer until ready to serve. They can keep for up to 1 month in the freezer, well-wrapped in freezer bags.
