My usual wintertime wake-up is strong coffee (current favourite beans: Safari Blend from Trader Joe's), hot from the French press, but today, bursting with a lightness of spirit evocative of warmer weather, I decided to indulge in my other caffeine bliss.
1. The little metal thingie - $1.25
2. Cafe du Monde, 3 heaping teaspoons
3. Almost an inch of sweetened condensed milk - I like Longevity brand, the one with black and white cows on the front, because it's super-smooth and never gritty.
4. Hot water in the metal thingie. I do it twice for maximum whatever.
Stir well, ensuring that all the condensed milk is incorporated. Scrape the bottom!
Lots of ice.
Mmmmm. Priceless!
