1
Grind the Coffee Beans
Using a coffee grinder, grind the coffee beans until they reach a medium to coarse consistency for optimal brewing.
2
Boil the Water
In a kettle, bring 2 cups of fresh water to a boil. Once boiling, remove from heat and let it cool for about 30 seconds to reach the ideal brewing temperature.
3
Brew the Coffee
Place the ground coffee in a coffee filter inside your coffee maker or French press. Pour the hot water over the grounds and allow it to steep for about 4-5 minutes.

4
Sweeten the Brew
Once the coffee is brewed, pour it into your favorite mug and add 2 tablespoons of sugar, stirring well until fully dissolved.
5
Cream it Up
Add 0.5 cups of milk to the sweetened coffee and stir until combined. Adjust milk quantity to your preference for creaminess.
6
Flavor It
Stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder to add depth and richness to the flavor.
