Cafe de Olla is our staple drink that reminds us of home. While mostly made during the holidays, Café Alchemy makes Cafe de Olla to pay homage to our culture every day. Café Alchemy traditionally prepares Cafe de Olla with locally roasted coffee beans, cinnamon, and piloncillo (unrefined whole cane sugar).  This amazing, delicious Mexican coffee will surely bring back memories. Not only is the taste irresistible but the history is a definite eyebrow-raiser. During the Mexican Revolution (1910-1920) las adelitas (women soldiers) played a crucial role. These formidable women soldiers were in charge of cooking, cleaning, setting up and breaking down of camps during the war. Cafe de olla was brewed and served by las adelitas for the duration of the Mexican Revolution. Las adelitas fueled the Mexican Revolution with Cafe de Olla,  and we hope to fuel your morning.
