Mexican Coffee

• 3/4 cup ground coffee, regular or decaffeinated
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, plus more for garnish
• 5 cups water
• 1/2 cup whole milk
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1/3 cup chocolate syrup
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• Cinnamon sticks, whipped cream, chocolate sprinkle, optional, garnish

Steps to Make It

• Gather the ingredients.
• Add the coffee grounds and cinnamon to the filter basket of your coffee pot. Then add the 5 cups of water to the pot and  brew as you normally would. 
• While the coffee is brewing, bring the milk, heavy cream, chocolate syrup, and brown sugar to a gentle simmer in a small saucepan. Make sure to cook on low heat so you don’t burn the mixture. 
• Remove from the heat and add the brewed coffee to the milk mixture. Whisk in the vanilla extract. 
• Divide the coffee among 4 cups and top with whipped cream and garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon or chocolate sprinkle, and add a cinnamon stick, if desired. Enjoy immediately.
