Brew one cup of coffee using your preferred method (e.g., drip coffee maker, French press, or pour-over).
While the coffee is still hot, add 1 pinch of salt to the brewed coffee and stir until dissolved. The salt will help neutralize the bitterness.
Add 1/4 teaspoon of ground cinnamon to the coffee and stir well. The cinnamon adds a warm, sweet flavor that balances the harshness.
If desired, stir in 2 tablespoons of milk or cream to further mellow the coffeeโs flavor and add richness.
For a touch of sweetness, mix in 1 teaspoon of your preferred sweetener, such as sugar or honey. Adjust the amount to taste.
Give the coffee a final stir to ensure all the ingredients are well blended.
Sip and enjoy your smooth and balanced cup of coffee!
