Ideas to host the perfect Mexican breakfast with friends, start with a vegetarian breakfast burrito.
Mexican Vegetarian Breakfast Burritos I like “Cafe de Olla.” For this breakfast, I made mugs with mini kits of Cafe de Olla. A small gift to celebrate friendship.

For the mini Cafe de Olla to-go kit. Each makes 1 French press (2 cups or one large mug). You will need:Mini kit para café de olla

  • Three tablespoons coarsely ground coffee (for French press) in a bag

In another bag:

  • 2 tablespoons of Piloncillo (at Latino markets) or brown sugar
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 1 Star anise
  • 2-3 allspice seeds
  • 2 cloves

Kit-cafe-de-ollaStar anise and allspice are not traditional, but I love them. To prepare, place all the spices and piloncillo in a pot with 4 cups water. Heat over medium heat. Stir to dissolve the piloncillo, and boil gently for 3 minutes.

I like having tropical juices like passion fruit, mango, and guava, which are not as common in the US.
