Ipoh ‘white’ coffee is a popular coffee drink which originated in Ipoh, the capital city of Perak, Malaysia. The coffee beans are roasted with only margarine, without sugar, which gives the coffee a lighter shade. White coffee is one of the most sought after drinks for locals as well as visitors.
The term ‘white coffee’ originates from the literal translation of its Chinese name, which was introduced in the 19th century by Chinese migrants who came to work in the local tin mines. The coffee beans themselves are not actually white; the color comes from the milk stirred into the end product.
