1
Measure and Mix Ingredients
In a small pot, measure out 1 cup of cold water and add 2 tablespoons of finely ground Arabica coffee beans, 1 teaspoon of sugar, and 1 teaspoon of ground cardamom.
2
Optional Flavoring
If desired, add 1 teaspoon of rose water for an extra layer of flavor.

3
Heat the Mixture
Place the pot over medium heat and stir the mixture gently until it starts to simmer. Do not allow it to boil.
4
Foam Formation
Watch for the coffee to create a foamy layer on top. Once it starts to foam, remove it from the heat before it overflows.
5
Repeat Heating
Return the pot to the heat and allow it to simmer again. Remove from heat as it foams up again. Repeat this process 2-3 times to develop rich flavors.

6
Pour and Garnish
Carefully pour the coffee into small cups, allowing the grounds to settle at the bottom. Optionally, garnish with a sprinkle of roasted pine nuts on top.
7
Enjoy
Serve immediately while hot, and enjoy the aromatic experience of Lebanese coffee.
