Kúmenkaffi
Similar to the Dutch anijsmelk, kúmenkaffi is an Icelandic treat that combines coffee with caraway seeds to create a unique beverage. The most authentic way to make kúmenkaffi is to combine the coffee beans and caraway seeds, and grind them together so their flavors mingle. Then, hot water is poured over the grounds, and they steep together for at least five minutes. After that, the coffee is cut with milk or sugar, to suit the drinker’s preference. If you want to make the adult version of this savory drink, add a shot of brennivín, an intensely warming Icelandic liquor.
