Coffee Syrup

By Texaschef11

Ingredients

• Coffee grounds
• Water

Preparation

Step 1

You will need a coffee maker in which boiling water goes through the ground coffee in a filter and drips into a pot.

Place enough coffee and water to make 6 servings. Run the coffee cycle as usual. When the coffee is finished brewing, discard the used coffee grounds and add to the filter a second quantity of coffee sufficient to make 6 servings. This time instead of adding fresh water to the coffeemaker, pour the already brewed coffee into the machine. Run the coffee cycle again. You will end up with double-strength coffee.

Repeat the process again, using new coffee, but reuse the brewed coffee instead of water. In the end, you will have triple strength brewed coffee.

Measure the amount of brewed coffee. Add half as much sugar as there is brewed coffee. Stir briskly until the sugar is dissolved. Make sure you add the sugar while the coffee is hot so that it dissolves.

Store the syrup in a tightly covered jar in the refrigerator.
