Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons coffee grounds
- 1 cup filtered water
- 0.25 cup milk (optional)
- 1 teaspoon sugar or sweetener (optional)
- 0.125 teaspoon cinnamon or cocoa powder (optional for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Boil 1 cup of filtered water in a kettle or small saucepan.
Step 2
While the water is heating, place 2 tablespoons of coffee grounds into a coffee filter and set up your coffee maker, French press, or pour-over setup.
Step 3
Once the water reaches a boil, carefully pour it over the coffee grounds. If using a pour-over or French press, pour in a circular motion to ensure all the grounds are evenly saturated.
Step 4
Allow the coffee to brew for about 3-5 minutes, depending on your preferred strength.
Step 5
If you're using a French press, press down the plunger gently but firmly after brewing. For other methods, follow the extraction process provided by your coffee setup.
Step 6
Pour the freshly brewed coffee into your favorite mug.
Step 7
Optional: If you like your coffee with milk, heat 1/4 cup of milk (either in the microwave for 30 seconds or on the stovetop) and froth it using a frother or whisk. Add the milk to your coffee.
Step 8
Optional: Stir in 1 teaspoon of sugar or sweetener if desired.
Step 9
Sprinkle a pinch (1/8 teaspoon) of cinnamon or cocoa powder on top for an extra touch of flavor.
Step 10
Sip and savor your lovely and luscious mug of coffee!
