A carajillo is a Spanish drink combing coffee, usually with brandy or whiskey. I recently told you about my new found obsession: Licor 43 in my post about Little Beers. Since Licor 43 is a Spanish liqueur flavored with citrus, vanilla and aromatic herbs, adding it to coffee to create this sublime cocktail seems so obvious. Paired with a cold brew coffee, it makes a fabulous after dinner drink or anytime for coffee lovers.

THE CARAJILLO COCKTAIL
1-2 shots Licor 43
cold brew espresso coffee
ice
Place a shot or two of the liqueur in a low ball cocktail class with ice (SEE NOTE). Fill with cold brew espresso and serve. Enjoy responsibly.
NOTE: This simple cocktail makes a stunning presentation using a large, decorative ice cube. Not only does is look fancy, it won't melt and dilute your drink. I used a sphere shaped mold. Boil the water first for a crystal clear cube.
