Instructions
- In a small saucepan, combine the chopped dates and water. Set the saucepan on medium heat.
- Once the date and water mixture reaches a boil, reduce the heat to low and allow it to simmer for about 5 minutes, or until the dates have softened.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
- Transfer the cooled date mixture into a blender or food processor. Blend until you achieve a smooth consistency.
- Pour the blended date mixture back into the saucepan, followed by the ground coffee, cinnamon, and cardamom.
- Mix the ingredients together thoroughly. Return the saucepan to low heat and let the mixture simmer for another 5 minutes, making sure to stir occasionally.
- Take the saucepan off the heat and let the coffee steep for 2 minutes.
- Slowly pour the coffee through a fine-mesh sieve into your serving cups to filter out any remaining coffee grounds or spices.
