There are certain flavors and smells that remind me of my childhood. The aroma of une cafesito de Nescafe, a cup of coffee made with Nescafe Clasico brand coffee and the delicious taste of La Lechera products; those are flavors of our heritage that take me back to beautiful moments with my grandparents. My grandparents and mother immigrated to the United States in the early 70’s. The Mexican heritage still runs pretty deep in our family as traditions have been passed down from my maternal grandparents and we have chosen to keep them alive with our family.

This Hispanic Heritage month I plan on taking special moments to think about time with my grandparents and share them with my boys. Aramis was able to grow a relationship with my papa, sadly Ezra did not but that doesn’t stop me from sharing pictures with him. I’m lucky that they both have such wonderful relationships with both sets of grandparents even though we are away. It’s a hard life, but having traditions keeps a little bit of “home” in our lives.

I’m very excited to share a delicious new recipe for you all today. The main ingredient is the Nescafe Clasico. I hope that you enjoy it! It truly is #NuestroSabor #CollectiveBias.

Coffee Mousse RecipeWhen you think of mousse you think of chocolate mousse right? When I decided to do a coffee flavored mousse I knew that using Nescafe Clásico would be perfect. As a child I remember being at my grandparents house and enjoying breakfast with them. We would have fried eggs, toast and coffee! I know what you are thinking.. “What are they thinking giving children coffee!” I’m not sure, but they did and we enjoyed it. Might be why I’m a staggering 5’0.. but who knows. LOL Either way, that is one of my favorite memories. And you know what breakfast is almost the same for me as an adult on weekends. Wow, I never stopped to think about it! How about that.

cafe classicoI now call it a “fat coffee” when I do enjoy milk and sugar in my coffee; I tend to take it black now.

So now onto the recipe! You can find all of the ingredients at Walmart! One stop shopping is always exciting for me! I was very excited at the variety of Nescafe too!

    I had a close relationship with my maternal grandparents and it was really such a huge part of my life. I still miss them and they’ve been gone a long time now. 🙂 Your coffee mousse recipe sounds delish!

    I’m not a coffee fan, but I love coffee flavored cream and mousse desserts like this. That would be yummy to eat!

  21. Brandy says

    That looks just so delicious! I have not tried this brand before, but your post makes me want to go grab some and give it a taste test!

    That looks so yummy! My grandparents would give me sips of coffee too. I’m pretty sure a lot of kids these days just dont need that extra caffeine.

    That looks just fabulous! Now that the mornings are getting colder, I just love sitting outside in a sweatshirt and sipping a piping hot cup of coffee, preferably flavored. I’ll give this fancy coffee a try!
