This is an Authentic Créole Recipe that is well over 100 years old.




Yesterday, I was in the middle of conversation with moi Maman, and she just mentioned that she had just drank a nice bottle of iced coffee form Starbuck. Yes, Louisiana Creole enjoy drinking Starbucks here and there. My husband’s cousin who located after the levees broke in New Orleans to St Louis Missouri among Americans and Missouri Creoles, regularly enjoy her frequent Starbucks run. For moi Maman, this was a easy accessible ready made chiled coffee she could cool herself down while enduring this current heat wave we are having in southwestern Louisiana around and in New Orleans. Every Creoles, including those New Orleans Creoles know No coffee will ever take the place of Creole Coffee. Sipping on a nice cooled iced coffee during Southern Louisiana Highly humid and Sweltering Heat is a Creole tradition going back over 500 years.
