☕ Coffee Mix with Ginger and a Secret Twist
🔸 Ingredients (1 serving)
-
1 cup (240 ml) hot brewed coffee (medium to dark roast works best)
-
½ tsp freshly grated ginger (or ¼ tsp ground ginger)
-
1–2 tsp brown sugar or honey (optional, to taste)
-
2 tbsp milk or a splash of cream (optional)
-
Secret twist: A small pinch of ground cardamom or a dash of vanilla extract
🔹 Instructions
-
Brew your coffee using your preferred method (French press, drip, or espresso diluted with hot water).
-
Add the ginger directly to the hot coffee. Stir well and let it steep for about 1 minute. If using fresh ginger, you can strain it if desired.
-
Sweeten to taste with brown sugar or honey.
-
Add the secret twist — either:
-
A pinch of ground cardamom (warm, exotic, and balances ginger beautifully), or
-
A dash of pure vanilla extract (adds roundness and a dessert-like aroma).
-
-
Top with milk or cream if desired, stir, and enjoy hot.
✨ Optional Additions:
-
A pinch of cayenne for a spicy kick.
-
Cinnamon or nutmeg for a more chai-like flavor.
-
Ice it for a refreshing cold version.
