There is nothing like a hot mug of frothy Cafe con Leche. This is the traditional breakfast coffee that is drunk by all most all Cuban families. Not to be ignored is the traditional Toastada Cubana. (Cuban toast) Fragarant Cuban bread spilt and butterd inside and on the outside then put in a sandwich press to toast for about three minutes. Resutls crispy buttery outside and tender, moist and buttery inside. I love to dunk my toast in my coffee. It's truly delicious. A great way to start the day. Enjoy

Ingredients

1 1/2 ounce(s) expresso coffee bustelo or pillon or llave are all very good brands
1 cup(s) cold water about a tad less. what ever your expresso maker calls for
2 teaspoon(s) sugar per cup or mug or to suit your taste
20 ounce(s) hot whole milk or 2% or what ever suits your taste.
1 pinch(es) (tiny pinch of salt just a few grains) added to the hot milk
- ~~~~ cuban toast~~~~
1 large loaf of cuban bread cu into thirds , then each cut horizontally in half
3 tablespoon(s) soft butter or a little more

Steps:

If you have an Expresso coffee maker follow the instructions and make about a half cup of expresso coffee or as it is sometimes called demi-tas coffee. I have also purchased an on the burner expresso coffee maker. Looks like a little coffee pot. They are relatively inexpensive about $8.00 or $10.00. The smaller ones will make 2 demi-tas cups of expresso coffee and the larger will make 4/6 demi-tas cups of expresso. Can be purchased at any Latin food store or grocery also can be purchased in any Italian grocery store.
After you have made your expresso coffee set aside do not add any sugar, Heat your milk to the point of almost steaming do not boil. Add the few grain of salt stir with a spoon and add all of your expresso coffee. Stir well and then add your sugar about 4 tablespoons. Stir again and taste to see if it is sweet enough for you. Some people don't like it to sweet and other's like it sweet. That's up to your taste. Can be drunk as is or accompanied with hot Cuban toast; or a full breakfast. Enjoy
Cuban Toast: Split a large loaf of Cuban bread or French or Italian bread horizontally and butter each side. Then close the halfs and butter the outside on both sides. Put into a hot sandwich press, or a George Foreman grill as I do or a panini press, or a hot griddle with a heavy weight to press on top of the toast, such as a cast iron pan. toast about 1 1/2 minutes on each side. When crispy and golden on both sides remove to a dish and cut diagonally. Serve with your hot Cafe con Leche. Delicious; Enjoy

I was desperate for a dose of my morning pick me up, but alas no creamer nor any milk in the frig! Frantically I searched the pantry and found sweetened condensed milk and evaporated milk. Hum?! Why not combine the two and create my own creamer? When added to my strong usual brew of Cafe Cubano, the result was rich, creamy and udderly delicious! Enjoy!

Ingredients

1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk (whole milk, lots of sugar!)
1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk (whole milk)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
10 ounces water

Steps:

Thoroughly combine two cans of milk, use water to rinse out the cans and add vanilla extract. Serve with your preferred brew. Refrigerate if you drink a lot of coffee in your house or if you have company. Or freeze in ice cube containers for individual use.

Tips:

Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your Cuban coffee and toast.
Don't skimp on the sugar. Cuban coffee is traditionally made with a lot of sugar, so don't be afraid to add a few spoonfuls to your cup.
Use a good quality bread for your toast. Cuban bread is typically made with a combination of wheat flour and cassava flour, which gives it a slightly sweet and chewy texture. You can find Cuban bread at most Latin American grocery stores.
Don't overcrowd the pan when you're cooking the toast. This will prevent the toast from cooking evenly.
Serve the toast immediately with your favorite toppings. Cuban coffee and toast is traditionally served with a dollop of butter and a sprinkle of sugar, but you can also add other toppings like honey, cream cheese, or fruit.

Conclusion:

Cuban coffee and toast is a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or snack. With its rich flavor and sweet aroma, it's sure to become a favorite in your household. So next time you're looking for something new to try, give Cuban coffee and toast a try. You won't be disappointed!
