Black filter coffee with cocoa is brewed filter coffee served without milk or sugar, with a little cocoa stirred in. Filter coffee is a brewing style rather than a single regional recipe, and cocoa is a simple addition that brings a gentle chocolate-like aroma without turning the cup into a sweet drink.
It works well at breakfast or as a daytime coffee, whether you make it at home or order it in a café; a glass of water alongside is a useful pairing. At about 4 calories per 100 g, it remains very light, with most of its character coming from coffee rather than cocoa. To avoid lumps, blend the cocoa with a splash of hot coffee before filling the cup, and keep it unsweetened for the lightest version.
