Spicy or Bold Options: Enjoy with a classic Espresso or the creamy Flat White for a touch of indulgence.

2. Create a Festive Empanada Spread
Transform your holiday gatherings into a feast with an empanada spread that guests will love! Here's how to create an easy and festive spread:
Choose a Variety: Empanadas are incredibly versatile. Offer a mix of flavors from the savory to the sweet, so everyone has something to enjoy. Consider offering a combination of beef, chicken, cheese, and vegetable empanadas, along with sweet options like apple, guava, or dulce de leche.
Add Dips and Sauces: Enhance the empanadas with a variety of dipping sauces. Try adding a spicy salsa, cilantro cream, or a sweet chili sauce to complement the flavors of the empanadas. For sweet empanadas, you can add a drizzle of caramel sauce or a dusting of powdered sugar.
Include Sides: Pair your empanadas with simple sides like a fresh salad, roasted vegetables, or a warm potato dish. A cheese platter also complements both savory and sweet empanadas, making it a great addition to your holiday spread.
