Ingredients

Coffee & Ice

Liqueurs & Flavor

Garnish & Optional

Preparation

Prepare Glass & Ice

1. Chill glass

Place a rocks glass or double old-fashioned glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes or fill it with ice water while you assemble ingredients to chill.

2. When ready, fill the chilled glass with fresh ice cubes (about 6 standard cubes) and discard any ice water used to chill the glass.

Build the Carajillo

3. Measure and pour 1.5 oz Licor 43 into a mixing glass or directly into the chilled, ice-filled serving glass.

4. Add 0.5 oz Frangelico and 0.25 oz black walnut liqueur to the Licor 43 in the glass.

5. Pour 6 oz cold brew coffee over the liqueurs and ice. Stir gently with a bar spoon for 10–15 seconds to combine and slightly chill the liqueurs without over-diluting.

Garnish & Serve

6. Express the orange twist over the drink to release oils, rub it on the rim if desired, then drop it into the glass.

7. Float or drop three coffee beans on top as a garnish. Serve immediately with a short stirring straw or bar spoon.
