Homemade Vanilla Bean Coffee Blend

Recipe #150426 | 10 min | 10 min prep | add private note

Its that time of the year when everyone could do with a mug of coffee and some soft serenading music. This is a wonderful creation. An easy mix from Martha Stewart that I came across in the Weekend magazine dated December 23rd'2005. Enjoy! Happy New Year, everyone!

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Using a paring knife, scrape the seeds from the vanilla beans.
  2. 2
    Mix the scraped seeds with the coffee.
  3. 3
    For best results use a medium-bodied coffee from Kenya or Colombia.
  4. 4
    Transfer the mix into a coffee bag.
  5. 5
    Decorate with a lilac ribbon(use whichever is your favourite colour) and don't forget to add your personal message before you seal it up with a pretty sticker.
  6. 6
    Enjoy the season of Christmas, Hannukah and New Year!
  7. 7
    Note: You may substitute the vanilla beans with 1 or 2 tsps. of cinnamon or nutmeg powder for a different flavour. I haven't tried other flavours, but if you do, be sure to let me know in your comments how it turned out.

    Char, this is a great recipe - my boyfriend puts cinnamon in my coffee and it's such a nice change from regular old American coffee! I will be sure to try this with vanilla and let you know how it turns out.
