INSTRUCTIONS
Prepare a pot of coffee at a good European strength (Miriam Nadel suggests
2 tablespoons per cup, which I'd say is about right). In the ground
coffee, add 2 or 3 freshly ground cardamom pods. (I've used green ones, I
imagine the brown ones would give a slightly different flavor.) Sweeten
while hot, then cool quickly.
Serve over ice, with unsweetened evaporated milk (or heavy cream if you're
feeling extra indulgent). To get the layered effect, place a spoon atop
the coffee and pour the milk carefully into the spoon so that it floats on
the top of the coffee.
