Instructions

  1. Heat a cast iron pan over medium heat and add the green beans.
  2. Stir constantly for 10 to 15 minutes, until the beans turn dark brown and release a hazelnut aroma.
  3. Pour the still-warm beans into a mortar and grind them finely.
  4. Bring the water to a boil in a jebena or coffee pot, add the powder and let it steep for 5 minutes.
  5. Filter and serve in small cups, sweetened to taste, accompanied by popcorn.

Variations and tips

Smoked coffee. Leave the beans a little longer for a more roasted, bitter flavor.
