Moroccan Cinnamon Coffee With Orange Flower Water Recipes

MOROCCAN CINNAMON COFFEE WITH ORANGE FLOWER WATER

• Stir in the orange flower water.
• Serve hot with milk and sugar or vanilla sugar if desired.

MOROCCAN COFFEE GRANITA WITH ORANGE WATER CREAM PARFAIT

Steps:

• For the Moroccan coffee granita: Put the coffee beans, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, black pepper, cardamom and clove in a coffee grinder and process until ground.
• Place the ground spiced coffee into a coffee maker, add 4 cups cold water and brew according to the manufacturer's directions. Transfer the brewed coffee to a small saucepan, add the granulated sugar and cook over low heat until the sugar is completely dissolved. Stir in the sambuca.
• Pour the mixture into a 9-by-13-inch metal or glass baking dish. Freeze until ice crystals begin to form around the edges, 3 to 4 hours, depending on how cold your freezer is. Using a fork, stir the mixture well and return to the freezer. Continue freezing, stirring and scraping every 30 minutes, until the mixture is thoroughly frozen and the crystals are fluffy, another 3 to 4 hours.
• For the orange water cream: Combine the cream, confectioners' sugar, orange flower water, orange zest and vanilla extract in the chilled bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Mix until soft peaks form.
• Layer the granita and orange water cream in tall glasses. Garnish with candied orange peel and mint sprigs

MOROCCAN COFFEE WITH SIX FRAGRANT SPICES

Steps:

• Combine the spices with the coffee beans in a grinder and whirr until the beans are finely ground.
• Bring 4 cups of water to boil.
• Put some milk-a cup or more-in a small saucepan over a low flame to heat. Do not let it come to a boil.
• If you are making the coffee in a filtered maker: Pour the coffee mixture into the paper-lined brewing cup. Pour about 2 ounces of boiling water over the coffee to allow the grounds to "bloom." Then slowly add the rest of the water, allowing it to drip through the grounds into the pot below.
• Or (for Mikekey) if you are using a French press: Put the coffee and spice mixture in the bottom of the press pot. Pour in the requisite amount of boiling water, put the top in place and let the mixture steep for 4 to 5 minutes. Press the plunger down.
• Pour the spiced coffee into cups and add hot milk (and sugar) if desired. Serve at once.
