Traditionally served in small cups, it is a social beverage often enjoyed throughout the day. The preparation method emphasizes the frothy sugar topping, which is a signature of this beloved drink. Today, Café Cubano is popular not only in Cuba but also among Cuban communities in the United States and beyond, where it has become a symbol of cultural identity and hospitality.
