  • “Mmmmmmm!! This creamy, delicious, tasty, frothy coffee has woken me up from sleep like nothing else ever could! I made just 2 servings of it and I have to tell you, this is just splendid! I used 1 cup each of milk and water, 1 cardamom pod(crushed), 1 1/2 tbsp. sugar, 1/4 cinnamon stick and 1 1/2 tbsp coffee(Nescafe). Will make this often! Thank you for sharing this:)Its really nice and I’d recommend it to everyone.”

  • “I made this for the Comfort Cafe tag game. Excellent flavour combination. I made it using skim milk, but pouring the coffee back and forth between two pots made it creamier than I would have imagined. I had to play around a bit with the sugar because I do not like overly sweet drinks. In the end, I made 1/3 of the recipe and used 1 Tbsp of vanilla sugar. Delicious! Thank you, Dancer, for sharing this recipe.”

  • “Very nice flavors, and rich and creamy.A nice mid-day treat.Really liked the cardamom flavor!”

  • “I really enjoyed this sweet spicy coffee. I loved the combination of cardamom and cinnamon and didn’t find it overly strong. The coffee, is rich, thick, sweet and spicy.Just perfect.Thanks so much for sharing. Made for the Comfort Cafe.”

  • “Made for the March Photo Challenge 2008Mmmmm is all I can say…I adore the cardamom and cinnamon flavours in the coffee.You can adjust the sweetness very easily.This would be perfect with some lovely Indian Sweets… 🙂 or as an ending to a delicious Indian meal…almost a dessert in itself.”

  • “I made this for my husband who has given it 5 stars. Coffee gives me palpitations but I tried it on him and he now wants it at least once a week. Thanks for posting!”

  • “Maybe this was personal tastes coming into the fore, but I didn’t quite enjoy this one. I halved the recipe and used 2 cardamom pods and a 1/2 inch piece of cinnamon. I used 1 1/2 tablespoons of sugar, as I don’t like my coffee too sweet. My mom felt that the spices seemed to overwhelm the coffee taste. And maybe I’m just not too adventurous when it comes to coffee! Sorry Dancer :-(“
