Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 leaves fresh mint leaves
- 2 tablespoons ground coffee
- 1.5 cups water
- 1 teaspoons sugar or sweetener
- 0.25 cups milk (optional)
- 4 pieces ice cubes (optional, for iced version)
Instructions
In a small pot, combine the water and 4 fresh mint leaves. Bring to a boil over medium heat to infuse the water with mint essence.
Once the water begins to boil, add the ground coffee to the pot and stir well to ensure even brewing. Lower the heat and simmer for 2-3 minutes.
Turn off the heat and let the coffee mixture steep for 1-2 minutes for deeper flavor.
Using a fine mesh strainer, carefully strain the coffee into a mug or heatproof cup to remove the mint leaves and coffee grounds.
Add sugar or sweetener to taste and stir until fully dissolved.
Optional: For a creamier coffee, stir in the milk. For an iced version, allow the coffee to cool slightly, pour over ice cubes, and garnish with the remaining mint leaves.
Enjoy your aromatic Coffee with Mint, hot or iced!
