Start by grinding 2 tablespoons of quality dark roasted coffee beans to a medium-coarse grind if they are not pre-ground.
In a pot, bring 1 cup of water to a boil. Once boiling, turn off the heat and add the ground coffee. Let it steep for about 4-5 minutes.
Filter the coffee grounds using a coffee filter or a fine mesh sieve to get the brewed coffee. Discard the grounds.
Stir in 2 tablespoons of sweetened condensed milk into the hot coffee until fully dissolved. Adjust the sweetness to taste, adding more condensed milk if desired.
Sprinkle a pinch of ground cardamom into the coffee and mix well to infuse it with flavor.
Fill a tall glass with 1 cup of ice cubes. Pour the coffee mixture over the ice, allowing it to cool and dilute slightly.
Optional: For added aroma, sprinkle a pinch of ground cinnamon or cardamom on top of the iced coffee just before serving.
