Serves 2

Ingredients

Water
2 cups
Honey
2 tablespoons, or to taste
Dried heather flowers
1 tablespoon
Ground coffee
2 tablespoons

Instructions

  1. In a coffee filter or French press, combine the ground coffee and dried heather flowers evenly.
  2. Bring 2 cups of fresh water to a boil, then let it cool for about 30 seconds to ensure it's not boiling hot when poured over the delicate heather.
  3. Pour the hot water over the coffee and heather mixture, ensuring all the grounds are saturated.
  4. Cover and let the mixture steep for 4 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  5. After steeping, press down the filter or plunger to strain the coffee into a cup, separating it from the heather and grounds.
  6. Stir in the honey until fully dissolved. Adjust the sweetness to your preference.
  7. Serve warm and enjoy your aromatic Heather and Honey Coffee!

Tips

  • 💡 For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of cinnamon or vanilla extract while steeping.
  • 💡 If you prefer a stronger floral note, increase the amount of dried heather flowers to 1.5 tablespoons.
  • 💡 This coffee can also be served iced for a refreshing summer beverage.
