Filter coffee

Also called: Filter coffee, Фильтр-кофе, South Indian filter coffee, Degree kaapi

Chicory-blended coffee dripped overnight through a steel filter, mixed with boiled milk and pulled between tumbler and davara until it froths. In Bengaluru it is not a café order; it is a household ritual with a fixed hour.

How it's eaten

Pour it back and forth between tumbler and davara until it cools, then drink from the tumbler.

Where to try it

Bengaluru

Not a café order but a household ritual with a fixed hour; you drink from the tumbler, and the davara is for cooling it.
