    Chilled Arabian Coffee

    List of Ingredients




    2 Tbsp. granulated sugar
    1 Tbsp. instant coffee granules
    1 Tbsp. unsweetened Dutch process cocoa powder
    1-1/2 cups boiling water
    1 cinnamon stick, 3" long
    6 whole cloves
    2 pieces orange rind, each about 3" long by 1" wide (scrape off any white pith)

    Optional for serving:
    Ice
    Milk or cream

    Recipe



    In medium heatproof bowl or four-cup heatproof liquid measure, combine sugar, coffee, and cocoa powder. Add boiling water; stir thoughly to dissolve solids. Add cinnamon stick and whole cloves; twist each piece of orange rind once, then add to hot liquid. Let stand at room temperature for 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Strain to remove spices and rind, then chill until very cold. Stir well before serving. Serve as is, over ice, or with the addition of a little milk or cream.

    Variation: Cafe a la Vanille
    Make Cafe Arabe as above, except omit cinnamon stick and cloves. Before serving, stir in 1 Tbsp. pure vanilla extract. Great with a little milk added!
