Spicy World on Amazon has the whole green pods (this item), the cardamom seeds, and the ground cardamom. 2 cup whole milk cup water 2-3 cardamom pods 2 teaspoon instant coffee (I use Bru or Nescafe) 3 teaspoon sugar In a heavy bottom pot on medium heat add the water and milk. Lightly crush the cardamom pods and add to the milk mixture. As the mixture starts to heat up add the coffee and sugar. Wisk often to ensure the milk doesnt burn or stick to pot. Once the cardamom milk coffee comes to a light boil, turn off heat and pour in cups from 8-10 inches distance up top, to help get that frothy top. Makes 2 cups with a few extra sips. Enjoy!
