Method
Preparation
Prepare the Cardamom
Crack open the cardamom pods using a mortar and pestle or the flat side of a knife. This will help release their aromatic oils.
Cooking
Simmer the Mixture
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Allow it to simmer for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add Flavor Enhancers
Add the star anise, cloves, vanilla extract, and nutmeg to the saucepan. Stir to combine and let the mixture simmer for an additional 10 minutes.
Finishing Touches
Strain the Mixture
After simmering, remove the saucepan from heat and strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a clean bottle or jar to remove the spices.
Cool and Serve
Allow the Cardamaro to cool to room temperature. Once cooled, it can be served over ice or as a soothing warm drink.
