Sukku powder - 1 1/2 to 2 tea spoons
Panakalkandu - as needed (can use cane sugar or jaggery)

Dry all the ingredients one by one seperately and allow them to cool
Grind all the roasted ingredients to a fine powder
Store it in an air tight container.
To make the coffee
Bring water to a boil and add the sukku powder and panakalkandu and allow it to simmer for another 3 to 5 minutes
