Method

Coffee Preparation

1

Grind the Coffee Beans

Take the espresso coffee beans and grind them finely using a coffee grinder. The consistency should resemble that of table salt.

2

Brew the Coffee

In a coffee maker or espresso machine, add the ground coffee and pour in 2 cups of water. Brew the coffee until you have a strong espresso shot.

Mixing Sugar

3

Dissolve the Sugar

In a separate bowl or small saucepan, add the granulated sugar and a small amount (about 1-2 tablespoons) of the hot brewed coffee. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved.

4

Combine Sugar and Coffee

Once the sugar is dissolved, add the remaining brewed coffee to the sugar mixture. Stir well to combine, ensuring the coffee is sweetened to taste.
