What is Karupatti or Palm Jaggery
Karupatti which is also known as Panna Vellam or Palm Jaggery is made from the extract of the Palm tree. It is often used as a natural sweetener in cakes, cookies, coffee, or any other sweets. It is rich in Iron and Potassium.
Karupatti is a very popular sweetener used these days in place of Sugar. It has a deep brown color and it varies from light brown to deep brown depending on the purity quality of the Palm Jaggery.
Karupatti Coffee with Milk
My Karupatti Coffee is a milk-less version. However, you may also prepare it with milk. Instead of Water, you will have to use Milk. The taste is good either way.
Vegan Karupatti Coffee
I always prefer the vegan version instead of the version with Milk. It is light and this is the traditional way of preparing Palm Jaggery Coffee.

I'm a big fan of karupatti coffee and often make them at home. In our home we used to make karupatti coffee with and without milk, but my favorite is always without milk. Total yum!!!

I have heard a lot about this coffee, but never tastes it. I should try it when I come to India. I have some palm jaggery at home. I am becoming lactose intolerant and this will be a good coffee for me to try without milk.

I guess this is an acquired taste. I once made this when we got chukku karupatti and the kapi tasted awesome, Later when I made with regular karupatti and added chukku, it was not so great. The pics looks nice Sharmila.
