The one cup to order

A cafecito (or a cortadito with milk) from the ventanita, the street window, with a pastelito de guayaba

When it's quiet: It's open late; mid-afternoon on a weekday is quietest.

The Cuban window everyone in Miami ends up at: sweet, strong coffee pulled with sugar, and the city's politics argued over it since 1971.

8 min · 4 to 6 thimble-size cups (a colada to share). The fuel of Miami, from the ventanita at Versailles: dark espresso sweetened in the brewing, with a pale-gold sugar foam (espumita) whipped from the first drops of coffee.
