  1. 1

    Brew the Espresso

    Start by brewing a fresh shot of espresso. Ideally, use a quality espresso machine for the best flavor.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Glass

    Take a copa or a suitable glass and fill it with ice cubes. The ice will help keep the drink chilled.

    Pour the espresso and Licor 43 mixture over the ice in the prepared glass.

  5. 5

    Sweeten the Drink

    Add 1 tsp of sugar to the drink and stir until fully dissolved.

  6. 6

    Top with Whipped Cream

    Spoon a generous amount of whipped cream on top of the drink to add richness and texture.

  7. 7

    Garnish

    Finally, garnish your Copa Carajillo with a cinnamon stick and a few whole coffee beans for presentation.
