A señora’s coziest staple has always been the tecito or cafecito. It’s a routine old time señoras used throughout the day to break up the monotony of the day. Now we use it to give ourselves a pick me up during our shifts at work or Saturday mornings. Some early gray gives us energy for the day, and chamomile helps us fall asleep in the evening. It’s something I can’t live without!
Nothing makes for a better cafecito break experience than accessories that could take you back to childhood or remind you of your parent’s homeland. Here are some of our favorites:
