How to Make Arabic Coffee With Rose Water
- Gently crush the cardamom pods. In a large saucepan, combine 6 cups of water and 1 teaspoon of cardamom powder.
- Heat the water over medium heat. Do not bring to a rolling boil.
- Before the water boils, add 1/2 cup of finely ground coffee. Stir gently but thoroughly several times to prevent scorching.
- Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Let it simmer for 1-2 minutes.
- Remove from heat and let the coffee settle undisturbed for 5-7 minutes. This allows the grounds to sink.
- Carefully pour the brewed coffee into a small kettle or pour-over pot, leaving the coffee grounds behind in the saucepan.
- Add the crushed cardamom pods and a pinch of saffron threads (if using) to the kettle.
- Stir in 1-2 tablespoons of rose water, starting with the lower amount and adjusting to your taste preference.
- Gently heat the coffee in the kettle over low heat. Do not let it boil again.
- Once heated through, remove from heat and serve immediately in small, traditional Arabic coffee cups.
