Simple Cardamom French Press Coffee

5 from 1 vote
This recipe is almost exactly like making a regular french press coffee, but with a little twist that makes a HUGE difference in flavor. Cardamom has a very strong, nutty and spicy (flavorful not hot) flavor that goes perfectly in a strong cup of coffee.
