The Story of Egg Coffee

During the French colonial period in Vietnam, milk became a scarce commodity, sparking a wave of creativity. Egg yolks emerged as an ingenious alternative in coffee. The fusion of coffee’s natural bitterness with whipped egg yolk resulted in a uniquely rich, velvety drink. Served warm in a small cup, egg coffee features a thick, frothy egg cream that invites you to gently stir and blend the warm coffee below with the creamy top for a perfect balance of flavors.

Egg coffee is more than just a beverage; it stands as a testament to the distinct flavors of Vietnamese coffee and embodies the ingenuity and unwavering spirit of the Vietnamese people, even in the most challenging times. This tradition has turned morning routines into a unique ritual: a nutrient-rich cup powered by egg yolk protein and caffeine, setting the stage for a day full of energy and productivity.
