Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Coffee

    In a small coffee pot (briki), combine the finely ground Greek coffee and water.

  2. 2

    Add Sugar (Optional)

    If desired, add sugar to taste. Stir the mixture gently to combine.

  3. 3

    Heat the Mixture

    Place the briki on low heat and allow the coffee to heat slowly. Do not stir once it begins to heat.

  4. 4

    Watch for Foam

    As the coffee heats, foam will begin to form at the surface. Watch closely to prevent it from overflowing.

  5. 5

    Remove from Heat

    Once the foam rises to the top, remove the briki from the heat before it boils over.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Pour the coffee into small cups, allowing the grounds to settle at the bottom. Enjoy your Greek coffee!
