| How sweet do you like it? One or two spoons for each cup you make I guess. Never heard of it this way before. Or guess you could just put some in the bottom of the coffee pot .

| We call that "Cajun coffee". We were once invited by a tugboat captain to have breakfast on his boat [we had become friends on the Florida coast]. We met on the boat, very early in the morning, and had the most wonderful breakfast I have ever tasted in my life! He laughed as he served his "Cajun coffee" and explained how it was made. When he buys a new perculator, he immediately throws out the inside parts. You fill it with water, place the grounds along with sugar [to your taste] in the water and boil it on the stove. OMG! It was wonderful! I cannot remember having a more perfect morning ... sipping coffee and watching the sunrise on the beautiful Florida coast! I, personally, would bite the bullet and ask my MIL or next time she was making it ... watch her like a hawk and try it when I got home. Good luck and maybe someone here actually knows how to make it.

What a picturesque story. Thanks for sharing it. Being a dreaded MIL, I love it when my DIL asks questions, makes me feel good, cause she's about as perfect as they come.

| I never heard of such a thing. Personally, I hate sugar in coffee, but I LOVE a dab of real cream.... |

Awww.....you'd be the perfect MIL it sounds like too. What a sweet thing to say about your DIL! And I agree, I loved the story too. I've never heard of putting sugar in the coffee grounds; that's interesting! I wonder how it would work with different kinds of coffee makers ie: French Press, or automatic drip. I don't drink a lot of coffee (usually 1 cup in the morning) but I really appreciate a great cup of java. My dad grows his own beans and sends them to me, so I'm always trying to find different things to do with them!
