To make coffee with tahini, whisk a spoonful of tahini with a small splash of brewed coffee until smooth, then stir in the rest. This minimally processed drink needs no special equipment, and you can adjust the tahini to taste.
Coffee with tahini tastes roasted, nutty, and earthy, with the coffee’s bitterness balanced by sesame’s rich flavor. Tahini also makes the drink feel fuller-bodied, although the result can be quite intense if you use a strongly brewed coffee.
No, tahini does not fully dissolve in coffee; it is a sesame paste, so it can float or settle as the drink stands. Whisk it with a little coffee first, then stir the finished drink again before sipping.
Yes, espresso works well in coffee with tahini because its concentrated flavor stands up to the sesame paste. Whisk the tahini with a little hot water or espresso first, then add the remaining espresso and hot water or milk.
Yes, coffee with tahini can be served iced. Make a smooth paste by whisking tahini with a small amount of warm coffee, then add chilled coffee and ice; pouring cold liquid straight into tahini can leave stubborn clumps.
No, coffee with tahini does not need milk; tahini already gives it a rich, creamy texture. Add dairy or plant milk if you prefer a milder, latte-like drink, and stir well because the sesame paste can separate.
Coffee with tahini can be enjoyed without sweetener, but a little sugar, honey, or date syrup softens the sesame’s roasted, slightly bitter flavor. Mix the sweetener into warm coffee so it dissolves before adding ice or serving.
Yes, coffee with tahini contains caffeine from the coffee; tahini itself is naturally caffeine-free. The amount varies with the coffee and brewing method, so choose decaf or a smaller coffee base if caffeine tends to affect your sleep.
No, coffee with tahini is a drink, not a complete breakfast. While tahini adds richness, the cup does not provide the variety of foods needed for a filling meal; pair it with breakfast rather than relying on it alone.
Coffee with tahini is usually not a good bedtime choice if caffeine keeps you awake. The tahini does not cancel caffeine’s alerting effect; choose decaffeinated coffee or have the drink earlier if you want to enjoy its sesame flavor.

Coffee with tahini combines brewed coffee with tahini, a paste made from ground sesame seeds. It is a rich, modern variation rather than a standard form of Turkish coffee: the roasted notes of coffee meet tahini’s nutty, toasted flavour and creamy body.
You can serve it hot as a breakfast drink or an afternoon pick-me-up, either on its own or with a small sweet or savoury bite. Stir it well so the tahini blends evenly; its natural richness can make the drink feel substantial. The nutrition profile is shaped largely by fat, with 8.2 g per 100 g. For a lighter cup, use less tahini, and skip added sweetener if you prefer the coffee’s bitterness to come through.
