Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 240 ml freshly brewed coffee
- 60 ml fresh orange juice
- 1 teaspoon orange zest
- 2 teaspoons granulated sugar
- 30 ml heavy cream
- 2 whole cloves
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 dollop whipped cream
- 1 orange peel twist (for garnish)
Instructions
In a small saucepan, combine the fresh orange juice, orange zest, granulated sugar, whole cloves, and ground cinnamon.
Heat the mixture over medium-low heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves and the spices infuse into the juice. Simmer gently for 3-4 minutes, then remove from heat. Strain the spiced orange syrup through a fine mesh sieve into a small bowl or jug to remove the cloves and zest.
Brew a fresh cup of your favorite coffee (approximately 240 ml) while the syrup cools slightly.
In a cup or glass, pour the strained orange syrup followed by the freshly brewed coffee. Stir gently to combine.
Lightly whip the heavy cream until slightly thickened but still pourable. Using the back of a spoon, gently float the cream on top of the coffee mixture.
Add a dollop of whipped cream for extra decadence if desired.
Garnish with an orange peel twist for a sophisticated finish.
Serve immediately, stirring lightly before sipping to blend the orange and coffee flavors with the cream.
