Cowboy Coffee

Ingredients:
– 1/3 cup coarsely ground coffee beans
– 4 cups water
– Optional: a splash of cold water

Instructions:
1. Start by heating the water in a sturdy pot over a campfire, stovetop, or any heat source you have available. Aim for a gentle boil – you don’t want the water to be too aggressive, as this can scorch the coffee grounds.

2. Once the water is hot but not boiling furiously, add in the coarsely ground coffee beans. Give it a good stir to ensure the grounds are evenly mixed with the water. Let the mixture simmer for about 2 minutes. This slow and steady brewing process allows the flavors to develop fully.

3. After letting the coffee simmer, remove the pot from the heat and let it sit for a few minutes to allow the grounds to settle at the bottom. For an extra touch of authenticity, you can splash a little cold water on top to help the grounds settle faster.

4. Carefully pour the coffee into your favorite mug, taking care not to disturb the settled grounds at the bottom of the pot. If you prefer your coffee on the stronger side, you can let it sit for a minute longer before pouring to intensify the flavor.

5. Enjoy your piping hot cup of Cowboy Coffee as is or sweeten it to your liking with sugar, honey, or a splash of cream. Embrace the rugged simplicity of this brew and savor each sip as you imagine yourself out on the frontier, sharing stories around a campfire.

And there you have it – a hearty cup of Cowboy Coffee that’s sure to awaken your senses and kick off your day with a touch of rustic charm. Whether you’re an outdoor enthusiast looking for a taste of adventure or simply a coffee lover seeking a new brewing experience, this recipe is a delightful departure from your usual routine. So, next time you’re yearning for a bold and flavorful cup of joe, channel your inner cowboy and brew up a batch of this timeless favorite. Happy brewing!
