Kopi Jahe
August 6th, 2012When we were in Jakarta in May, this was the beverage of choice for me, ginger coffee. It reminded me of embah (my granddad). It’s not to everyone’s taste but I just love the ginger taste with coffee.
So, last night I grabbed about 7cm of ginger, peeled it, bruised it, boiled it in three cups of water for about 15 minutes. Let it cool down. When I woke up at 3am to have my morning meal before I start my fast, I made myself a cup of kopi jahe. One spoon of instant coffee, half a cup of boiling water, quarter cup of ginger water, 1tsp sugar and milk.
Heaven.
Now, all I need to remember is to get evaporated milk as it taste nicer with evaporated milk
