1
Brew the Espresso
Using an espresso machine, brew a single shot of espresso. Aim for around 1 ounce of strong, rich espresso.
2
Measure the Licor 43
Pour 1 ounce of Licor 43 into a heat-resistant glass or mug.

3
Combine Ingredients
Slowly pour the brewed espresso over the Licor 43 in the glass, allowing the two to mix gently.
4
Add Garnishes (Optional)
If desired, add a cinnamon stick for flavor and a few coffee beans on top for decoration. You can also add whipped cream on top for a richer experience.

5
Serve Immediately
Serve the Carajillo warm and enjoy immediately for the best flavor. Stir gently before drinking to combine the flavors.
