Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Finely ground Arabic coffee (light roast)
- 2.5 cups Cold water
- 1 teaspoon Ground cardamom
- 1 teaspoon Rose water
- 1 teaspoon Optional: sugar
Instructions
In a dallah (traditional Arabic coffee pot) or a small saucepan, pour in 2.5 cups of cold water.
Add 2 tablespoons of finely ground Arabic coffee to the water and stir gently to combine.
Place the dallah or saucepan over medium heat and slowly bring the mixture to a boil. Avoid stirring during the cooking process.
Once the coffee begins to boil, reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 5 minutes. This allows the flavors to infuse deeply.
Add 1 teaspoon of ground cardamom to the coffee. Stir gently and let it simmer for an additional 1-2 minutes.
Remove the coffee from the heat and let it sit for 1 minute to allow the grounds to settle at the bottom.
Add 1 teaspoon of rose water to the coffee and stir lightly. If desired, add 1 teaspoon of sugar for a hint of sweetness.
Strain the coffee through a fine mesh strainer or pour carefully into traditional Arabic coffee cups, leaving the grounds behind.
Serve immediately and enjoy the rich, floral aroma of Arabic coffee with rose water.
