Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Freshly brewed coffee
- 0.5 cup Coconut milk (unsweetened)
- 1 tablespoon Coconut sugar or brown sugar
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.125 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.125 teaspoon Ground cardamom
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Coconut flakes (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Brew one cup of your favorite coffee using a coffee maker, French press, or pour-over method.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the coconut milk, coconut sugar, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and ground cardamom.
Whisk the mixture continuously until it is warmed through and the sugar is fully dissolved (about 3-4 minutes). Do not let it boil.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Pour the freshly brewed coffee into a mug, then slowly add the spiced coconut milk mixture, stirring gently to combine.
Taste and adjust sweetness, if necessary, by adding a bit more coconut sugar or your preferred sweetener.
For an optional garnish, toast the coconut flakes in a dry skillet over low heat until lightly golden and fragrant (about 2-3 minutes). Sprinkle the toasted coconut on top of the coffee before serving.
Enjoy your Spiced Coconut Coffee while it's warm and fragrant!
