Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons ground coffee

  • 1/2 teaspoon ginger
  • 1/2 liter water

  • To start, gather your ingredients. You will need:
    2 cups of water
    2 tablespoons of finely ground coffee
    1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon
    1 teaspoon of ground cardamom

  • Now it is time to brew your coffee. Follow these steps:
    Boil the water in a saucepan.
    Once boiling, remove it from heat.
    Add the coffee and spice mixture to the hot water.
    Stir gently to combine.
    Let it steep for about 5 minutes.
    After steeping, strain the coffee into a serving pot. A fine mesh strainer works well. This removes the grounds and spices. What you have now is a rich, aromatic brew.
    If you prefer a sweeter coffee, add sugar while it brews. Stir until dissolved. This step gives the coffee a balanced flavor. You can taste it before serving to adjust sweetness.
