Mexican coffee

[DecafMom]

Mixing your spices before you brew can add flavour so easily. This is a particularly sweet way to serve up a cup of coffee, with generous amounts of chocolate and brown sugar.
Ingredients:

125ml ground coffee
80ml chocolate syrup
1 tbs cinnamon
250ml milk
60ml brown sugar
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1 tsp vanilla
Preparation:

Before brewing, combine coffee, cinnamon and nutmeg. Brew however you like. In another small saucepan, heat brown sugar, syrup and milk. Stir until sugar is melted and dissolved. Pour sugar mixture into hot coffee, and add vanilla.

That first recipe especially sounds delicious. I think I'll try it, and if it tastes as good as it sounds, I'll call it "Christmas coffee". Nutmeg and Cinnamon? Yummy

Don't know why but when I hear Mexican coffee, I imagine this will be something very spicy and burning
