Orange Dream Coffee

1. 1

   To start, pour three ounces of whole coffee beans into the grinder and set aside. You donat need to be exact but a small measuring cup is helpful.

2. 2

   Next, grab a fresh orange and a grater. Using the teeth that yield the largest shavings, grate a tablespoon of orange peel and drop it in the grinder with the beans.

3. 3

   Start the grinder and as the coffee is crushed the sound will go from a clatter to a sandy hum. This usually takes about 15 seconds.

4. 4

   Add the ground beans to your coffee maker along with 4 A1/2 cups of water. For best results, use filtered tap water.

5. 5

   Begin brewing and in 5-10 minutes you will have a hot pot of orange-infused black coffee. To finish, drop in a large dollop of vanilla ice cream and stir. Both the orange and coffee are acidic but the vanilla and milk in the ice cream will reduce the acids for a smoother finish.

   I learned this recipe from Greg Orman, a centrist who ran for Senate in Kansas in 2014. He lost, but I still learned a great recipe!
