Today I want to show you how to make cafe de olla at home. This is a Mexican coffee recipe that is very easy to make, super delish and actually good for you (sans the sugar 😊). I make it without the piloncillo or brown sugar and absolutely love it.

This coffee is spiced with cinnamon, cloves and star anise. Read below for all the benefits when it is made without the sugar -
