The coffee consists of condensed milk, a layer of fermented milk with salt, and a traditional aluminum coffee filter on top. After waiting for about three minutes, the color of the coffee cup gradually changes as the black coffee drops gradually fall into the pure white salt cream. Finally, after stirring the cup, you can add a few ice cubes and enjoy. At first, you will feel unfamiliar with the flavors, as salt coffee is much different from the daily coffee that you have.
