How to Brew the Perfect Cup of Coffee with The Southern Brew ☕ Here’s how I make my perfect cup with The Southern Brew, and trust me, it’s all about keeping it simple and getting the best out of your coffee. For a medium-strength brew in your regular drip coffee maker, I go with about 6 tablespoons of freshly ground coffee. If I’m craving something stronger, I’ll bump it up to 7 or 8 tablespoons—same goes for the Firecracker coffee. Freshly ground coffee is key for that rich, bold taste. Now, when I’m using my Firecracker K-cups, I always hit the “rich” setting. It makes the coffee a little stronger and really brings out the flavors. When it comes to sweetening it, I love using Texas Boys Honey—just 1 teaspoon in an 8 oz. cup is the perfect amount to add a little sweetness without taking away from the coffee’s flavor. And for a little treat, I’ll throw in a quarter teaspoon of vanilla—it enhances the flavors and makes each sip feel like something special. It’s not complicated, but it’s definitely my favorite way to enjoy The Southern Brew. Give it a try and see what you think!
