Ingredients

  • lassi
  • unsweetened cocoa
  • instant espresso
  • ginger
  • honey
  • coffee
  • cinnamon
  • ground fennel seeds
  • mixed spices
  • banana
  • fresh orange zest

Instructions

  1. Make two cups of brewed very strong coffee or espresso. The way I prefer to brew my coffee is to heat filtered water to 190-200 degrees. In a filter cone place the freshly ground coffee beans. Add optional spices such as fennel, cardamom, cinnamon and ginger at this point, too. Pour in a tease of the hot water (about 1/4 the amount) to wake up the ground beans; let that small amount of water slowly filter through. Then pour in the remaining water to complete the brew. I have used Jamaican blue coffee beans.
  2. Let two cups of brewed espresso or strong coffee cool. Then pour into an ice cube tray and freeze for at least 5 hours. You will have 14 cubes for use. Great for iced coffee, too.
  3. Combine all ingredients in a blender and process. Chill, if desired.
  4. Garnish with a sprinkle of orange zest,cardamom, cinnamon, cocoa or other spice as desired.
