¡Hola!
Here's what we’ve been brewing this month at Abogados Café…
Earth Month!
Today is the last day of Earth Month—a time to raise awareness and take action to protect our planet. At Abogados Café, we’re proud to be 𝐳𝐞𝐫𝐨 𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐥𝐞-𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐜 since day 1—whether you’re sipping in-house or grabbing your cafecito to-go. 💚
A huge gracias to MNimize for the 𝐆𝐨𝐥𝐝 𝐓𝐢𝐞𝐫 recognition! It’s an honor to be acknowledged for our commitment to environmentally conscious practices. This is beyond a fad or following a trend. Ofelia and Inti are personally vested in creation care.
Here’s to waste reduction, 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐜𝐮𝐩 𝐨𝐟 𝐜𝐨𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐞 𝐚𝐭 𝐚 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞—every day of the year. ♻️☕
Looking Forward:
Chocobanano Lawtte!
Inspired by a beloved frozen banana Honduran treat, our Chocobanano Lawtte blends velvety banana and chocolate into one refreshing frozen-banana iced coffee drink—customizable with your milk of choice. No hot version.
🎉CINCO DE MAYO!
CINCO DE MAYO is not a Latin American holiday. It's not even widely celebrated in Mexico. Nevertheless, a good number of our customers enjoy it one way or another. 🥳
So on Monday, May 5th ONLY, come sip a cold & juicy MargaWrita—with a spice rim for a bonus delight! The rim spice creatively blends Lovejoy's Uniquely Flavored Rim Seasoning with Sal de Gusano (Mexican worm salt—a step above chemical-laced Tajín). 🌶🎉
Cold brew + houseground chipotle + cayenne syrup + ice = MargaWrita 🍹😋
According to Black's Law Dictionary, there are dozens kinds of Writs. Writ of recovery, writ of execution, writ of attachment, writ of habeas corpus, writ of mandamus, and writ of certiorari being some of the most famous ones. 🤓📖
💐Flowers and Cookies Para Mamá!
We want to celebrate all mothers and motherly figures out there for their constant support, unconditional disposition, and selfless love. Join us at the shop for beautiful edible blooms in our Lawttes on Saturday, May 10th only (available while supplies last)!
For the special occasion, we’re also hosting two local mother-owned vendors:
🌸 Ecuadorial Central Flower Shop (flowers)
🍪 Dee’s Bake Haven (Mother’s Day cookies)
¡Feliz día, mamás and mamacitas!
Looking Back

Ofelia and Inti had the honor of sharing their entrepreneurial journey with students, staff, professors, and President & Dean Camille Davidson.
It was a beautiful space filled with storytelling, connection, and encouragement.
Got an event coming up? Let us take care of it—so you can relax and enjoy time with family and friends. ☕
Family Trip to Honduras
Ofelia flew to Tegucigalpa, Honduras, for a family reunion and had the joy of reconnecting with loved ones.
During her trip, she visited the charming town of Santa Lucía and admired its beautiful hand-crafted sawdust carpets. She also explored Comayagua, home to the country’s new international airport, and San Pedro Sula, known as the textile capital of Honduras. And—of course—she enjoyed some incredible Honduran coffee. ☕
