Spanish Rosemary Espresso

Ingredients

Espresso

1 shot, freshly brewed

Water

1 cup

Fresh rosemary

1 sprig

Honey

1-2 teaspoons, or to taste

Instructions

1. Begin by brewing a shot of espresso using your preferred method, whether it's an espresso machine, stovetop Moka pot, or French press.
2. While the espresso is brewing, pour 1 cup of water into a small saucepan and bring it to a boil over medium-high heat.
3. Once the water reaches a rolling boil, add the fresh rosemary sprig to the saucepan and let it steep for 2-3 minutes. This will allow the flavors and aromas to infuse into the water, creating a fragrant rosemary infusion.
4. After steeping, carefully remove the rosemary sprig from the water and discard it, leaving you with beautifully aromatic rosemary-infused water.
5. Pour the rosemary-infused water into a cup, filling it about halfway to allow space for the espresso.
6. Add the freshly brewed shot of espresso to the cup, mixing the robust coffee with the fragrant rosemary water.
7. Stir in the honey, adjusting the amount to your desired level of sweetness, until it is fully dissolved and well incorporated into the mixture.
8. Serve the Spanish Rosemary Espresso hot, garnished with an extra sprig of rosemary if desired, and enjoy the unique flavor fusion!
