Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons coarsely ground coffee
- 0.5 teaspoons ground ginger
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoons ground cloves
- 1 tablespoons brown sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups hot water
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream (optional for topping)
- 0.25 teaspoons ground cinnamon (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Boil water and let it cool for about 30 seconds so it is just below boiling point (approximately 200°F or 93°C).
In a French press, combine the coarsely ground coffee, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground cloves, and brown sugar.
Add the vanilla extract to the coffee mixture in the French press.
Pour the hot water over the coffee and spice mixture in the French press, ensuring all the grounds are saturated.
Stir the mixture gently with a wooden or plastic spoon to combine and allow the flavors to meld.
Put the lid on the French press but do not press the plunger down yet. Let the coffee steep for 4 minutes.
Slowly press the plunger down to separate the grounds from the brewed coffee.
Pour the gingerbread coffee into cups. Optionally, top with a dollop of heavy cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon for garnish.
Serve immediately and enjoy the warm, spiced flavors.
