You need:
- A Bialetti coffee maker. You can find some of these at Ebay for some good $20.
Ground coffee.
1 tablespoon of cream.
1-2 tablespoons of sugar, honey, or any kind of natural sweetener.
How to make it:
- Twist your coffee maker open.
Remove the metallic funnel inside.
Add 1 cup of water inside; if it's smaller, fill it until the water reaches the bronze valve.
Place the funnel back in place and fill it with ground coffee.
Twist your coffee maker close, and do it really strong, otherwise the water will leak and you won't have any coffee left!
Put the whole thing in the stove.
Turn on the fire and keep it low.
Wait 5-10 minutes, or until you stop hearing the water bubbling inside.
While the coffee is ready, put the cream and the sugar/honey/whatever you're using in the cup.
Once it's ready, add the coffee to the cup, and mix.
Drink the whole thing. The cream and the sugar will soften the espresso's super-strong taste without removing the caffeine.
