Cafe Bombon

  • 1 oz Espresso

  • 1 oz Sweetened Condensed Milk

Fill cordial glass with 1 oz of sweetened condensed milk and then slowly and carefully pour an ounce of espresso on top.

Originating in Valencia, Spain, during the mid-20th century, the Café Bombón is a sweet and visually distinct coffee drink. Its name, Spanish for "confection," aptly describes its taste, which was created by combining equal parts strong espresso and sweetened condensed milk.

Traditionally served in a clear glass, the drink showcases its characteristic layers, with the dense, sweet milk at the bottom and the dark espresso floating above. Before being enjoyed, the layers are stirred together, creating a creamy and indulgent beverage. This simple yet decadent coffee quickly spread from Valencian cafés to become a beloved treat across Spain and around the world.
