“…coffee can energize the industrious at dawn, calm the reflective at noon, or raise the spirits of the beleaguered in the middle of the night.”

It’s hot here this summer but I still yearn for a cup of coffee midday – after my morning pick-me-up. I tried this recipe with the last grounds of a gingerbread flavored coffee a friend sent to me for Christmas. The ginger still has a snap, and without the heat, it’s a tasty summer brew. Try it with your favorite flavored coffee and let me know how it works out for you.
Recipe
Yield: 2 1/1 cups syrup. Keep in refrigerator up to 2 weeks.
To serve and enjoy: Combine 1/2 cup or less of the coffee base syrup with equal parts of water or milk. Pour over ice.
