Description
Try this Danish-inspired coffee cocktail that’s spicy and not too sweet on a brisk autumn night.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 stick cinnamon
- 2 whole cloves
- 4 cups of water
- ½ cup dark rum
- 56 grams of freshly ground coffee
- Sugar (if desired)
Instructions
- Pour the water into a pot; add the cinnamon and cloves.
- Simmer the mixture for 45 minutes, brewing a potent cinnamon and clove tea-like concoction.
- At the 45 minute mark, bring the mixture to a rolling boil and then remove from heat.
- Using a pourover coffee brewer (like a V60 or Bonavita) or a french press, pour the cinnamon and clove concoction into the coffee grounds, brewing as normally directed (check brewmethods.com for some good methods). When finished, pour the coffee into a carafe if not already brewed into one.
- Making sure your rum is at least room temperature (heating it a bit will reduce the amount of heat lost to the overall drink), add it to the coffee.
- If desired, sweeten with sugar to taste.
