Crush 6 green cardamom pods to release the seeds, then grind them in a mortar and pestle.
In an ibrik or small pot, stir the cardamom with 1 cup of cold water and 2 tablespoons of finely ground Turkish-style coffee until the coffee starts to dissolve.
Set the pot over medium heat until the foam starts to climb, then lift it off the heat at once. Return it to the heat until it rises again, lift it off, and repeat once more.
Pour into small cups, tilting each cup, and spoon the remaining foam over the top.
