Brewed in a cezve, a unique small pot, this coffee is an aromatic blend of robust Turkish coffee and fragrant cardamom. This coffee is not merely a beverage, it's an experience.

Servings: 1

Ingredients

Cardamom
1/2 teaspoon, ground
Sugar
1-2 teaspoons, or to taste
Turkish coffee
1 heaped tablespoon
Water
1 cup

Instructions

  1. Pour water into a cezve and place it over medium heat.
  2. Add the Turkish coffee and sugar to the cezve, stirring until they dissolve.
  3. Add the ground cardamom to the cezve, stirring it into the mixture.
  4. Allow the coffee to slowly come to a boil. A rich, dark foam will form on the top.
  5. Once the foam forms, remove the cezve from the heat and let it sit for a few seconds. This allows the foam to settle.
  6. Return the cezve to the heat and allow it to come to a boil again. Repeat this process 2-3 times for optimal flavor extraction.
  7. Pour the hot coffee into small cups, distributing the foam evenly among them.
  8. Let the coffee settle for a minute before serving to allow the grounds to sink to the bottom of the cup.
  9. Serve the Israeli Turkish coffee hot. Enjoy this traditional, aromatic beverage sip by sip.
