How to Make Tailgate Coffee
- In a large pot (at least 4 quarts), combine 8 cups of water, 1/2 cup molasses, and 2 cinnamon sticks. Bring to a rolling boil over medium-high heat.
- Remove from heat and carefully add 12 ounces of coarsely ground coffee. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 6 minutes. Stir gently halfway through.
- Remove from heat and let steep, covered, for an additional 2 minutes.
- Line a fine-mesh sieve or coffee filter with cheesecloth and carefully pour the coffee mixture through, discarding the grounds and cinnamon sticks.
- In a small saucepan, gently warm 1 (14-ounce) can of sweetened condensed milk over low heat, stirring frequently to prevent scorching.
- Slowly pour the warmed condensed milk into the strained coffee, stirring gently to combine.
- Serve immediately in mugs. Garnish each mug with an extra cinnamon stick for an elegant touch.
