MEXICAN CHOCOLATE COFFEE

Steps:

• You'll use a coffee machine for this.
• Put all of the ingredients in the order listed.
• So nutmeg and cinnamon go in first, cocoa above that and coffee last.
• Add the water into the coffee machine and brew as you would for plain coffee.
• If you like coffee strong, use 4 cups water, medium strength: 6 cups, and weak: 8 cups.
• If the flavor seems strong, skip the nutmeg.
• The nutritional ananlysis will probably be off because everything is diluted.
• Enjoy!
