1
Measure Coffee Grounds
Measure 2 tablespoons of coffee grounds using a tablespoon. Ensure the coffee is freshly ground for optimal flavor.
2
Boil Water
In a kettle or pot, bring 1 cup of water to a boil. You can use filtered water for a cleaner taste.
3
Combine Coffee and Water
Once the water is boiling, pour it over the coffee grounds in a French press or coffee maker. If using a French press, let it steep for about 4 minutes.
4
Strain Coffee (if necessary)
If using a French press, press down the plunger to separate the grounds from the brewed coffee. If using a coffee maker, this step is not necessary.
5
Add Sugar
Stir in 1 tablespoon of sugar into the brewed coffee while it is still hot. Adjust the sweetness to your preference.
6
Add Milk
Pour in 2 tablespoons of milk, or more to taste, and stir well to combine. You can use whole milk, skim milk, or a non-dairy alternative.
7
Add Cinnamon (optional)
If desired, sprinkle 1 teaspoon of cinnamon on top of the coffee for added flavor. Stir again and enjoy your coffee.
