Ingredients
6 to 7 ounces piloncillo (Mexican cones of raw sugar), or 1 cup packed dark brown sugar and 2 teaspoons molasses
2 cinnamon sticks
1/2 teaspoon anise seeds
1 cup (3 ounces) Viennese-roast coffee, medium to coarse grind
2 cups low-fat milk
Directions
- In a nonreactive saucepan, combine 4 cups of water with the sugar, cinnamon, and anise seeds. Bring slowly to a boil over medium heat, stirring to melt the sugar. Stir in the coffee, remove from the heat, cover and allow to steep for 5 minutes. In a small saucepan, heat the milk over medium-high heat and whisk until frothy. Do not leave unattended. Strain the coffee through a fine sieve into small cups and serve immediately, with the frothed milk on the side.
