South Indian coffee is flavorful, bold and strong. I always woke to its amazing aroma brewing in my mom’s kitchen. Coffee granules are soaked in hot water and then put through a three-part coffee filter. In some cases, dried ginger is added for a distinctive taste. This is a simple coffee but one enjoyed by all.
