Best cookware for heating up sand?

Super weird question I know, but hear me out.

I want to brew traditional Turkish coffee with sand, while camping.

I will be camping on a beach plenty of sand, and I want to to try to brew my coffee with the hot sand method. (Basically as shown here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifgQ9RCz2RQ)

I'll have an open cooking fire, so I won't be able to control the heat super well, the coals will be very hot. I'll want to scoop some dry sand into a vessel, and then put that directly on the coals. So my question is, which cookware would be best for this?

My immediate thought was cast iron dutch oven, but is there a risk of it cracking if I heat it up 'dry', without any oil or water?

Thanks for any help!
