Cafe Mexicano Spiced cafe de olla coffee

Drescription

Café Mexicano, or spiced café de olla, is a traditional Mexican coffee brewed with cinnamon, cloves, and piloncillo (unrefined cane sugar). Rich, aromatic, and warmly spiced, it’s a comforting and flavorful way to start the day.

Ingredients

2/3 cup ground dark roasted coffee, medium to coarse grind
1 quart water
1 cinnamon stick
one 3-inch piece orange peel
5 ounces piloncillo* or 1 cup packed dark brown sugar

Directions

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add the coffee grounds with 1 quart water, the sugar, cinnamon and orange peel. Stir to combine and bring to slow boil, stirring to dissolve sugar. Remove from the heat and let steep, covered for 5 minutes. Strain, through a fine mesh strainer, into cups and serve.

Slow Cooker

Slow Cooker Green Bean Casserole with Crispy Onions

Thanks to fresh green beans, an easy homemade cream sauce and crispy onion topping, this green bean casserole recipe is healthier and more delicious than traditional recipes that use canned soup, beans and onions. Plus, the slow cooker saves you time cooking at the stove. Make sure to use fresh green beans, as frozen green beans will become mushy.
