Score: 77/100Rankings

McCafé Café de Olla K-Cup pods offer a dark-roast coffee infused with cinnamon and caramelized piloncillo, providing a sweet, spiced experience. Each pod is high in calories and sugar, which may deter health-focused drinkers. Best suited for those craving a traditional Mexican café de olla flavor.

Café Bustelo Espresso Style K-Cups offer an intense dark roast suitable for espresso-style drinks and are Kosher certified. Flavor consistency can vary between batches, and the large packaging may be more than occasional users need. Great for fans of bold Latin-inspired coffee who use Keurig brewers.
