How to Make Masala Coffee Spiced Coffee

  1. In a saucepan, combine 1 cup water and 1 cup milk. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
  2. Add 1 cinnamon stick (or 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon), 3-4 lightly crushed green cardamom pods, and 2 tablespoons of sugar (adjust to your sweetness preference).
  3. Add 2 tablespoons of instant coffee granules (or 1/4 cup finely ground coffee) to the boiling milk mixture.
  4. Reduce heat to medium-low and gently simmer for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Ensure the mixture doesn't boil over.
  5. Remove from heat. Carefully strain the coffee mixture through a cheesecloth or fine-mesh sieve into another saucepan, pressing gently on the solids to extract as much liquid as possible.
  6. Return the strained coffee to the saucepan and place it over low heat. Heat gently, stirring frequently, until it begins to thicken slightly and become creamy (about 2-3 minutes). Do not boil.
  7. For an extra-creamy texture (optional): Pour the coffee back and forth between two containers several times to create a frothy consistency. This step helps emulsify the mixture.
  8. Remove from heat and serve immediately in small cups. Enjoy!
