Coffee Charcoal


Coffee charcoal is a unique way to serve coffee with extra burnt charcoal added to the coffee pot while the coffee is still piping hot or to the cup of strong coffee and the burnt charcoal will give an extra taste to the coffee.

I tried to add charcoal to my coffee when I was with friends at the shisha corner. Because I do not smoke so I always disturb friend who smoked shish. I picked few hot charcoal and I placed in my tiny cup and taste so good and I let friends tasted and everybody said it is different taste. Then I decided to invented my own recipe for the charcoal coffee. 

Coffee charcoal is good to absorbs substances in the intestines and help to reduce upset stomach as known that carbon from charcoal helps to neutralize the acid production as well as bloating and gases.

2½ tablespoons full of grounded coffee or Turkish coffee powder (if you want to have cardamom flavor)
4-5 coffee cups boiling water
5 teaspoons sugar (you put more if you need sweeter taste)
4 pieces charcoal (burn to be red hot) – make sure the charcoal size is easy to place into the coffee pot

like i did on the first image on this page above

Boiled the water until really hot and then add the coffee powder and sugar. Stir for at least 1 minute until the sugar dissolved but the taste of the coffee will not evaporated.

Pour the coffee to the coffee pot and immediately add hot burnt charcoal into it. Serve immediately while is still very hot. And taste the real coffee charcoal. This recipe is for 4-5 cups of coffee.

Remember: the hotter the water, the better taste of the coffee.
