Making your own Café Bombón at home is a breeze!

A Café Bombón is traditionally made with equal parts espresso and sweetened condensed milk. The name “bombón” refers to the drink’s sweet and indulgent nature. It is the perfect drink to satisfy your sweet tooth! Plus, with our Flavour Drops, you can have fun customizing it to your liking! One of the best things about this recipe is its versatility—use it as a guide to spark your creativity.

For our twist on this tasty treat, we reduced the amount of condensed milk to lower the sugar content and added 15 drops of Irish Cream to infuse a sophisticated, creamy sweetness without the alcohol. But feel free to experiment! You can adjust the amount of condensed milk and flavour or swap it out entirely with Caramel, Vanilla Cookie, or any flavour from our Coffee Kit and beyond. Did someone say Cinnamon? How about a little Cookies and Cream? The possibilities are endless, so have fun exploring the world of flavour at your fingertips!
