Step 1

In a medium olla or pot, add water, piloncillo, cinnamon sticks, cloves and star anise pod.

Step 2

Place over medium-high heat and stir often until the piloncillo completely dissolves and the water comes to a boil.

Step 3

Remove the pot from the heat. Add the ground coffee, stir to combine, and cover. Let the coffee steep for 6 minutes for regular strength coffee or 8 minutes for extra-strength strength coffee.

Step 4

Pour the coffee through a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth into a coffee mug and serve.

Step 5

Enjoy as is or add some milk for a cafe con leche.
