Christmas coffee is a coffee drink made by brewing ground coffee mixed with some wintery spices, such as cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg, clove, and brown sugar. It is usually topped with whipped cream and garnished with colorful jimmies and sprinkles, mostly in green and red!

To make Christmas coffee, ground coffee is first mixed with the spices in the recipe and then brewed together with them. You can brew the mixture in a coffee machine by putting it into the filter. Or, you can make a pour-over coffee with the mixture. The pour-over method yields a more flavorful result. Please click on this link to learn how to make pour-over coffee if you need.
