4 Easy Recipes To Upgrade Your Cafecito Game This Week
Absolutely nothing beats that first sip of a cafecito in the morning: the aroma of beans through the house, the ASMR-y sound of the pour, and that first taste. Especially in our culture, where we live and die by coffee (Cortadito anyone?), cafe is a very important part of our day.
But some weeks you think it would be nice to switch things up and make your coffee pop with a new recipe.
We did the leg work this week and found some of the most fun-looking coffee drinks for your morning cup from some of our favorite Latina bloggers.
Cafe De Olla From Mexico In My Kitchen
Coffee with a little spice? Sign me up. Mely at Mexico in My Kitchen shares her grandmother’s recipe for Cafe De Olla, which includes cinnamon, ground coffee, and raw dark sugar. She writes some that people sometimes add orange peel and anise. This cup will probably make your kitchen smell incredible.
A Spicy Cappuccino from Sweet Life Bake
Vianney at our favorite blog for years over at A Sweet Life Bake, adds not only cinnamon but also chile ancho, cocoa and frothy, delicious milk. Making this drink requires a delicate mix of blending, warming and pouring using a Moka pot, a great, balanced and almost meditative way to start your day. Check out her mouthwatering chrysanthemum latte below.
Everyday Latina’s Super Frothy Mocha Latte
Are you as much a fan of chocolate as I am? Then you’ll love Everyday Latina’s Super Frothy Mocha Latte, a rich and simple mix of chocolate almond milk, espresso and a french press. The photos for this one are scrumptious so we’ll have to make this tomorrow morning. Even better, it’s dairy-free.
Mama Latina’s Mexican Cafe con Leche
Our taste buds are dying to try this one. Mama Latina Tips has a recipe for Mexican Cafe con Leche that adds evaporated milk, cinnamon, Mexican coffee, vanilla, and more. Some mornings you just crave sweetness, making this your perfect find. She also has some incredible Atole recipes on her insta, below.
