Ingredients

• 2 teaspoons Finely ground Turkish coffee
• 1 cup Cold water
• 1 teaspoon Granulated sugar (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Add 1 cup (demitasse-sized) of cold water to your cezve (Turkish coffee pot).

Step 2

Add 2 teaspoons of finely ground Turkish coffee.

Step 3

If desired, add 1 teaspoon of granulated sugar or adjust to taste (choose from no sugar, medium sugar, or sweet). Do not stir yet.

Step 4

Place the cezve on low heat to allow the coffee to dissolve slowly. Stir just a few times until the coffee and water are combined but not vigorously mixed.

Step 5

Heat the coffee slowly, keeping an eye on it to avoid boiling it. Overheating will ruin the foam.

Step 6

As the coffee begins to foam and rise, remove the cezve from the heat to prevent it from boiling over. Carefully scoop some of the foam into your cup to ensure it holds a good froth.

Step 7

Return the cezve to low heat and let it foam again. Repeat this process 1-2 times, ensuring the coffee does not boil.

Step 8

Pour the coffee slowly into your cup to retain the foam on top. Serve immediately, allowing the grounds to settle at the bottom before drinking.
