1. Brew the coffee: Prepare 1 cup of strong brewed coffee using Vietnamese coffee grounds or your preferred strong dark roast. Set aside to keep warm.
2. Separate the eggs: Carefully separate 2 egg yolks from the whites. Place the yolks in a medium mixing bowl. Discard the whites or save for another use.
3. Whip the egg yolks: Using a hand mixer or whisk, beat the egg yolks on high speed for about 2 minutes, or until they become pale yellow and creamy in texture.
4. Add unsweetened condensed milk and flavoring: Gradually whisk in 2 tablespoons of unsweetened condensed milk. If desired, add 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract for extra flavor. Continue whipping until the mixture is fluffy and well-combined.
5. Assemble the coffee: Pour the warm brewed coffee into a glass or cup. Gently spoon the whipped egg mixture over the top, creating a thick, velvety layer.
6. Garnish and serve: Sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon over the egg foam for garnish, if desired. Serve immediately with a spoon to enjoy the creamy and robust flavors.
