NØLO Recipe: Mexican Tequila Café
Sep 19, 2025
This coffee-forward cocktail comes to us from our friends at Trejo's Zero Proof Spirits.
The Mexican Tequila Café brings together caramel-y sweetness, spices, creaminess, the bite of tequila, and the bitterness of fresh-brewed coffee. After dinner, at brunch, or for a mid-day "I deserve this", this is an easy to put together and easier to enjoy break in the day.
The History
Boozy coffee drinks have been around since the 16th century. The iconic Irish Coffee was developed in the much more recent 1940s and is the whiskey-based cousin to this Mexican treat.
