Vietnamese Egg (Custard) Coffee

This coffee beverage is uniquely sweet and custard-like. It is absolutely delicious! Egg Coffee sounds a little offsetting, but really itis Custard Coffee because the foam top is pretty much a custard. This recipe came to fruition due to a shortage in milk. The owner of a Cafe, Giang, created this substitute in the 1940’s, which became a hitsince then. Hence, why this drink is also knownas Giang Egg Coffee!
