Two coffee cocktails using Licor 43

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 Part Licor 43: 1-1/2 to 2 ounces
  • 2 Parts freshly made black coffee: 3 to 4 ounces maintaining the 2:1 ratio
  • Cubed Ice

Instructions

Iced and Frothy Carajillo

  1. Brew fresh coffee how you like it. Espresso or drip, strong or medium. Make it to your preference. I like a strong drip coffee.
  2. Combine the coffee and Licor 43 in a shaker or a blender.
  3. If you use a shaker, add ice, shake the devil out of it to get it as frothy as possible then use a hawthorne strainer to pour it over fresh ice in a double rocks glass
  4. If you use a smoothie blender, don’t add ice and pulse it a couple of times to get a great foamy drink, then pour it into a double rocks glass with ice. It will gradually separate into liquid and foam as you sip.

Pousse – Cafe

  1. Pour the Licor 43 into a single rocks glass with ice cubes
  2. Add the fresh-brewed coffee using a bar spoon, gently pouring to layer it on top
