How do I best store this spiced coffee?

For the best taste experience, drink this spiced coffee immediately after brewing. I do not recommend storing brewed coffee in the refrigerator or freezer.

What other herbs and spices go well with this coffee recipe?

You can vary endlessly! Besides the basic variant, cinnamon, saffron, ginger or nutmeg also taste excellent in this combination. Add them to the ground coffee for a unique, heartwarming twist.

Can I make this coffee without a Moka pot?

Absolutely. While a moka pot yields the most intense flavor, you can also use a French press or a cafetière. Bear in mind that the texture and strength of the coffee will be slightly milder then.

Can I substitute the honey or make the coffee without sugar?

Certainly, you can easily omit the honey for a pure taste. If you still want some sweetness but prefer not to use honey, use maple syrup or a natural sugar substitute instead.

Which coffee is most suitable?

A medium to dark roast coffee works best here for a full, warm flavor.

Preparation method

How do you make this?

Fill the lower reservoir of your moka pot (classic Italian stovetop coffee maker) with water up to the valve and pour into the lower reservoir.

Place the funnel on top and first put the orange slice at the bottom. Then add the freshly ground coffee and smooth it out evenly without pressing it down.

Place the star anise, cardamom pods (slightly bruised), cloves, and half a vanilla bean on top of the coffee.

Tightly screw the coffee maker shut and place it on a medium heat.

After about 1 minute, the coffee will start to brew, and your kitchen will fill with a delightful aroma.

Remove from heat as soon as the bubbling stops. Pour into a cup and finish with honey to taste.

Lightly crush the cardamom pods to release their aroma better
