Java Recipes

Amaretto Delight

Makes two cups. Top with whipped cream if desired. For a non-alcoholic version replace the amaretto with two drops almond flavoring and one drop of brandy flavoring.

Caffe Latte

Add steamed milk (150-170 F) to a freshly drawn shot of espresso (some like to add the shot of espresso last). Finish with a quarter inch of foamed milk. Pour slowly into the center of the cup. If desired, sprinkle with chocolate or cinnamon.

Caffe Mocha

Start with a long pour of mocha syrup to thoroughly coat the bottom of the cup. Follow with a shot of espresso and then add steamed milk (150-170 F). Crown with a generous scoop of whipped cream and lightly sprinkle with sweet ground cocoa.

Cafe Royale

Place a lump of sugar cube on a spoon and hold over a cup of hot black coffee. Pour an ounce of bourbon through the lump, which in turn runs into the coffee. Light the soaked sugar cube and let it burn out. Stir and serve.

Caramel Fudge Latte

Its basically a latte, except its got equal amounts of espresso and caramel fudge latte (not that weak syrup stuff). Best way to do this is put the caramel into your dosing pitcher when dosing, then stir it up and pour it into either a glass of hot milk (white or chocolate) or a glass of cold milk & ice. For some reason it tastes real good with skim milk... the whole milk and caramel together is almost too much.

Chocolate Covered Espresso Beans

Place the sheet of wax paper over a cookie sheet. Place the espresso beans about 1/2 inch apart. Melt the chocolate either in a pan on the stove or in a microwave safe dish in the microwave. Spoon the melted chocolate over the beans and set them in the fridge to harden. For a more chocolaty bean let the first coat of chocolate dry then put on another coat.

Chocolate Orange:

Coffee Extract

In the coffee growing parts of Mexico, people make coffee extract. Just leave your freshly ground coffee soaking in cold water for about 3 days and then strain and bottle. Keeps for ages and can be used for drinks or cooking. Used for "cafe con leche" i.e. with hot milk for breakfast. Use about 2 liters to a kilo but you can vary it depending on your taste.

French Kiss

In an Irish coffee type mug, add 1/2 oz of vanilla syrup, 1/2 oz of caramel syrup. Add hot milk so it floats over the syrup, than add 1 shot of espresso so it floats over the milk. Add whip cream and top it off with fine pink sugar.

Iced Chocolate Latte

Start with making some strong coffee by brewing 6-7 oz. of coffee and then pouring it back into your coffee maker and brewing it again. This may not be good for some coffee makers. You will loose some water in the process, producing 4-5 oz. of coffee. Add French Vanilla or Creme Br Lee for the coffee flavors. Add the sugar, syrup, and the milk to the coffee; stir well. Poor the coffee over the ice in a tall glass and top with whipped cream or foamed milk; lastly, sprinkle a dash of cinnamon on top.

Iced Cappuccino

Fill the glass with ice, add steamed milk and pour espresso gently down the side of the glass. Top with whipped cream if desired

Iced Coffee

Brew double strength - using twice as much coffee or half as much water. This allows for the heat of the coffee melting the ice cubes. African coffees are really good iced!

Mint Mocha Frapp

Make your coffee, with the sugar in it, put it in the freezer for about 30 minutes.

Now take the liquid part and pour it into the chilled coffee. Pour the coffee into a blender along with the milk, chocolate syrup, and ice, and blend till smooth.

Mocha Hazelnut Cappuccino or Latte

Latte or cappuccino? Latte more milk than froth, cappuccino more froth than milk. If you like strong coffee Cappuccino is better, because it has less milk and vice versa.

After you've decided what size you would like, put it together with the flavors and steamed milk.

New Mexico Spice Coffee

Turkish Coffee - Method 1

For each cup of coffee, put three ounces of water in a sauce pan and bring to a boil over low heat. For each serving, stir in 1 heaping teaspoon of espresso grind coffee (the finest grind) and 1 teaspoon of sugar. When the coffee boils to a thick froth, remove the pan from the heat and stir. Repeat the boiling, frothing, and stirring again. Boil the coffee a third time and then serve. NOTES:

Turkish Coffee - Method 2

Always put Turkish Coffee grounds one full of teaspoon, to pot then add cup per people water then start to boil at simmer heat, after bubbles come up, fill half of the cups, boil once more, then serve to the cups, this helps the special cream/bubbles of the Turkish coffee to be still, if you boil it many times you will end with clear dark water of no blend or cream. The special pot used boiling is named as 'cezve', 'ibrik' is many centuries ago - used as water pot.

Vanilla Cloud

Begin by preparing a latte as normal, but before steaming the milk, do this: mix half skim milk and half vanilla flavoring until completely blended. Add one tsp sugar to this and then steam. Pour liquid into espresso and then put the thick foam on top. Garnish with a dash of cinnamon.
