This small but mighty beverage packs an aromatic and flavorful punch. It’s the perfect coffee to sip and savor.

#2 Mexican Coffee
Have you ever had café de olla? The name roughly translates to “pot coffee,” as this traditional Mexican beverage was historically prepared in a clay or enamel pot. The main ingredients are coffee, cinnamon, and piloncillo (unrefined cane sugar). Some recipes may include ingredients like anise and cloves. Our Mexican Coffee recipe pairs Monin Cinnamon Syrup with Vanilla Spice Syrup for a cozy morning beverage you can enjoy all year round.
