Ingredients
¾ cup Brewed coffee
½ teaspoon Freshly grated ginger
⅛ teaspoon Ground cardamom
0.06 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
¼ cup Whole milk or preferred milk
Directions
Pour the brewed coffee into a small saucepan or pot. Add the freshly grated ginger, ground cardamom, and ground cinnamon.
Heat the spiced coffee mixture over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring gently to distribute the spices and allow their flavors to infuse into the coffee. Do not let it boil.
Pour the milk into the saucepan and continue heating until the mixture is warm and steaming, about 1-2 minutes more.
Carefully pour the spiced coffee mixture through a fine-mesh strainer into a serving cup to remove the ginger pieces and spice sediment, if desired, or pour directly if you prefer a slightly textured drink.
Serve immediately while hot and enjoy the aromatic blend of coffee and warm spices.
