Ingredients

  • 70 g Espresso
  • 4 g Sugar

Method

  1. Bring cold water to a gentle boil in a džezva or small pot (approximated here by strong-brewed coffee, the closest catalog match to unfiltered, finely-ground boiled coffee).
  2. Off the heat, let a spoonful of foam rise without letting it boil hard, then return briefly to a bare simmer.
  3. Let the pot sit for a minute so any grounds settle, then pour slowly into a small cup, leaving the sediment behind.
  4. Serve immediately with the sugar alongside, to sip slowly and leave the last sip in the cup.
