I had this at my favorite Vietnamese restaurant, and it's my favorite iced coffee recipe. The trick is to use espresso or to make your coffee as espresso-like as humanly possible. If the coffee is any weaker than that, the sweetened condensed milk becomes the main thing you taste, instead of the coffee.

Sweet and cool. The darker you can get the coffee, the better this tastes, I think.

Excellent recipie! I like it hot with a fresh baugette or croisant. My local Asian market sells a generic dark roast coffee. It takes a bit of going to get it all together (the coffee and pastry), but YUM! Is it ever worth the bother!This coffee is also wondweful iced. And at such a savings!
