Introduction
Coffee is a staple morning ritual for millions, but when you infuse it with garlic and honey—two ancient healing ingredients—you unlock a fusion that defies expectation. This unlikely trio combines the rich bitterness of coffee, the sweet smoothness of honey, and the pungent kick of garlic into a drink that’s not just energizing, but packed with potential health benefits. Whether you're a wellness enthusiast or a culinary explorer, this bold blend may surprise you in both taste and effect.
Ingredients
1 cup of freshly brewed black coffee (preferably organic)
1 small clove of fresh garlic, finely minced or crushed
1 to 2 teaspoons of raw honey (adjust for sweetness)
Optional: pinch of cinnamon or a drop of vanilla extract for added flavor
Directions
Brew the Coffee: Prepare your coffee as usual using your preferred method (drip, French press, pour-over, etc.).
Prepare the Garlic: Finely mince or crush a small clove of garlic. Let it sit for 5–10 minutes to activate allicin—the compound responsible for many of garlic’s health properties.
Combine: Add the crushed garlic to your hot coffee and stir well. Let it steep for 2–3 minutes.
Strain (Optional): If you prefer a smoother texture, strain the garlic bits out.
Sweeten: Stir in the raw honey. If using cinnamon or vanilla, add them now.
Serve: Pour into a mug and enjoy warm.
