Please enjoy this Kahlua Coffee Recipe from Mexico that was passed down to Gina from her mom who originally got the recipe from her Comadre (Gina’s brother’s Nina) in 1965. It can be enjoyed on a cold day or maybe a stressful one. We would love to see you share photos on Teams if you recreate the recipe. Thank you, Gina, for sharing a piece of your heritage!
