Trader Joe’s Just Dropped Boozy Vietnamese Iced Coffee
Trader Joe’s is back at it, and this time they’re serving up a canned cocktail that might just ruin all other espresso martinis for you. Meet Hard Vietnamese Coffee, a boozy twist from the brand Yoju that combines Vietnamese coffee, soju, and condensed milk into one dangerously smooth drink.
It’s rich. It’s creamy. It’s got that deep coffee kick you’d expect from a proper cà phê sữa đá—but with a 7% ABV punch. Think of it as the love child between an espresso martini and your favorite Vietnamese iced coffee, except this one comes ready to drink straight from the can.
Yoju already has a solid lineup of soju-based cocktails (their lychee flavor is said to be a fan favorite), but this fall seasonal release might be their best yet. You can pour it over ice for the full café experience or just crack it open cold for an instant pick-me-up-meets-turn-up situation.
