Café de Olla translates to "pot coffee" and was traditionally prepared in clay pots, giving the drink its name. In its most authentic form, piloncillo replaces the brown sugar in the above recipe and can be found at Mexican grocery shops. The most important ingredient, however, is the cinnamon because "it eliminates the bitterness of the dark roast coffee and gives it an almost tea like flavor," said Lorenzo from La Monarca Bakery (lamonarcabakery). Historically, the drink has been most consumed by residents of rural Mexico because of the colder climate. ☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️
