I love the flavor of orange zest and spices in a café de olla, so I created a concentrated syrup that is ready on demand to flavor any cold brew. Coconuts are grown all along the Pacific coast of Mexico; use coconut milk to add richness and even more tropical flavor.

Steps:
- Bring piloncillo, canela, cardamom, allspice, peppercorns, salt, and 1 cup water to a boil in a small saucepan. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer 15 minutes. Add orange zest; let cool.
- Strain spiced syrup through a fine-mesh sieve into a measuring glass; discard spices. (You should have about 1 cup.)
- To make 1 drink, pour 1 cup cold-brew coffee into an ice-filled glass. Stir in 2-3 Tbsp. spiced syrup; top with 2-3 Tbsp. coconut milk.
- Do Ahead: Syrup can be made 1 week ahead. Cover and chill.
