Coffee Drink Recipe's

Coffee Drink Recipe's

Coffee-n-CaffeineJamaican Coffee - Down in Jamaican the locals drink their coffee a bit differently than we do. Naturally down there Blue Mountain Coffee is used but this is equally good with any coffee. The fact that it is always warm and hard to keep milk (or cream) fresh they use a substitute Sweetened Condensed Milk.
- First Brew your coffee a bit stronger than you normally would brew your coffee.
- Per cup of coffee add 2 Tbsp of Brown Sugar,
- Add 1-2 Tbsp of Sweetened Condensed Milk. Stir till well mixed and drink.
Even if you are not a fan of milk or cream in your coffee the sweet taste of the Sweetened Condensed Milk along with the Raw Brown Sugar give you a drink closer to candy than coffee.

# Klingon Raktajino: Raktajino was identified as a Klingon Coffee in several episodes, but the best example was from "Trials and Tribble-ations". I do not have the official recipe, here try these mixes.
The first is actually Klah which was taken from the book "The Dragonlover's Guide to PERN" based on the novels from Anne McCaffery. The second was sent by Ka'Diin Kasara of the KIDC, and the newest was sent by Kor 'a of the IKV bortas.
Raktajino: Klah Version

* 2 Tbs. Sweet ground chocolate
* 1/2 cup dark cocoa
* 3/8 tsp. Cinnamon
* 1 tsp. Dark Roasted Coffee, ground fine (French Roast or Italian Roast)
* Pinch of nutmeg

Raktajino: House of Kasara blend

* 1 1/2 cup powdered non-dairy creamer
* 1 cup sugar
* 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa
* 6 Tbs. Dark Roasted Coffee, ground fine (French Roast or Italian Roast)
* 1/2 tsp. ground allspice
* 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon

# Note: lightweight Terran friends may prefer a mix made with 3 tablespoons of instant coffee.
# Makes approximately 14 servings.
For both versions mix all ingredients together, and store in airtight container.
To serve, use 3 teaspoons to 3/4 cup not-quite-boiling water. When served, the drink should be thick, much like hot cocoa
