I don't know what has happened, but espresso doesn't effect me in the same way it used to. The delicious, revitalizing Italian espresso that I usually prepare, has lost it's magic. My concerned friends have either lectured me that I have reached the point of excess and no return, or the special ones have shown sympathy and recommended a variety of alternatives. More than half have raved about Vietnamese Coffee, warning that this creation is not for the ill hearted and that I should prepare for the strongest, most intense, luxurious caffeine fix around. Well, I love Vietnamese food and certainly trust my friends, so I'm going to give this a try. The Vietnamese also add condensed milk in their iced variation, delicious! With the weather as hot as it's been, I should even make Vietnamese coffee popsicles. Am I getting ahead of myself? Probably...

Vietnamese coffee might be my favorite coffee next to a good Mexican coffee. Why don't you try mixing it up... making different flavor espressos in addition to Vietnamese delights i.e. put anise, cardamom or cinnamon in your espresso maker? XO
