Demitasse – Petite Coffee With a Lemon Twist, Since inheriting a collection of antique demitasse cups (small coffee cups, French ‘half-cups’) from my grandmother, I’ve been wondering what to serve in them! I came across this simple recipe in my trusty dog-eared copy of Betty Crocker’s Cookbook, and thought I’d share Would be great served with pastries for a ladies luncheon, or as an after dinner treat I’ve included the instant method as well as the more traditional brewed method Demitasse is served in small cups, often with a twist of lemon peel Sugar may be offered, cream usually is not , I make terrible coffee so have given up trying to! However, while getting ready for a dinner I was hosting recently I kept eyeing the several sets of demitasse cups saucers and pots that never get used and thought I should give it a try The first recipe that caught my eye was using instant coffee Yay! The only coffee I like and have any success with When I asked my guests if they would like a demitasse coffee they all said yes As I came sack to the dining room with my lovely demitasses, lemon swirls and brown sugar I heard the conversation going something like this – ‘Oh yes, ii hate instant coffee too’! Well I just soldiered on, poured and served the coffee and sat back waiting for the fall out it wasn’t long in coming ‘Oh, this is so good’, ‘So nice to have a really good cup of coffee’! Well so much for the coffee snobs!! Thank you for the recipe I will be serving it again at an upcoming dinner next week
