Ingredients
1 cup granulated sugar
8 oz cone piloncillo; crushed
1 . with a heavy mallet
1 cup water
6 cloves; whole
1 stick cinnamon; 3 inch
Cooking Directions:
Note: Piloncillo is an unrefined sugar that comes in a firm cone shape (it's named after the pilon, a conical weight used on scales). Piloncillo is available at Hispanic supermarkets.
Place water, sugar and spices in heavy one-quart nonreactive saucepan and let sit for 1 hour or longer, until sugar is fully dissolved. Slowly bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer 4-5 minutes. Allow to cool, then discard spices and pour remaining mixture into a glass bottle. Keeps indefinitely in the refrigerator. This dark syrup dissolves easily in hot coffee drinks.
