Madras Filter Coffee

Indian Beverage recipe from the Wikibooks Cookbook.

Ingredients

¼ cup water
½–2 tsp instant coffee with chicory root
¾ cup milk
Sugar (optional)

Instructions

Bring the water to a boil, and stir in the coffee. Ensure there are no lumps.
Bring the milk to a boil.
Add the coffee mixture to the milk, and sweeten with sugar to taste.
While the coffee is still boiling hot, pour it into a mug or, preferably, a stainless steel tumbler. While pouring the coffee, slowly raise the saucepan so the coffee falls into the mug from a height of about 1–1½ ft. This will cause the coffee to froth like espresso.
If desired, you can dip a teaspoon in the coffee and lightly spread a few drops of it over the froth in the mug.
Serve piping hot.
