I was hooked on joe by 12 th grade. I got to drive my stepdad's '66 Ranchero to school that year (liberation!) and each morning scrambled out the front door, juggling a steamy mug of black brew, a stack of books, and escaping papers.

A low-effort dessert inspired by cafe de olla, which is a drink I consumed daily while on holiday in Oaxaca, Mexico. It's a black coffee gently spiced with cinnamon and cloves, and sweetened with piloncillo (an unrefined sugar).

I can never resist a post-dinner coffee, and this scratches both that caffeine and sugar itch.
