Coffee is always a good way to start the day – but Christmas Day is a bit special. Why not treat yourself to a Christmas Morning Coffee with a difference?
With all our best wishes for Christmas and the New Year from the team at Price Kitchens.
Christmas Coffee Shot
Ingredients:
4 tbsp ground coffee
2 pitted dates
2 cloves
1 small cinnamon stick
Strip of pared orange zest
Pinch of ground nutmeg
Put the ground coffee, dates and cinnamon at the bottom of a large cafetiere, then add the nutmeg, cloves and orange zest.
Boil the kettle and pour 400ml of boiling water into the cafetiere, stirring gently with a wooden spoon. Slowly push down the plunger after 4 minutes and serve in espresso cups.
Spicy Christmas Coffee
Here’s a recipe you can make a few days in advance (or ask the little elves to help) so that the flavours infuse, then enjoy on the day.
Ingredients:
250g freshly ground coffee, medium roast
1 tbsp icing sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
½ tsp ground cardamom
Pinch of ground nutmeg
For 2 persons, place 2 heaped teaspoons into a cafetiere, then add 400ml boiling water. Let the coffee sit for 5 minutes, then slowly push the plunger down. Serve in mugs, decorated with a large squirt of cream and grated chocolate on top. Merry Christmas!
