Preparation

  1. 1

    Brew the Coffee

    In a coffee maker or espresso machine, combine the finely ground Cuban coffee and water. Brew until you have about 2 cups of strong coffee.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Sugar

    In a separate small bowl, combine the sugar with a few tablespoons of the brewed coffee. Mix well until it forms a paste.

    Combine and Whip

    Once brewed, pour the coffee into a large cup. Add the sugar paste to the coffee and stir vigorously with a spoon until it's well combined and frothy.

  4. 4
