Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Brew the Espresso

    Using an espresso machine, brew 1 cup of espresso. Ensure the espresso is strong and fresh for the best flavor.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Glass

    Take a serving glass and fill it with ice cubes. This will chill the drink and keep it refreshing.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Pour the brewed espresso over the ice cubes in the glass. Then, add 2 oz of Licor 43 to the glass.

  4. 4

    Garnish

    Add a cinnamon stick to the drink for aroma and flavor. Finally, twist the orange peel over the drink to release its oils and place it in the glass as garnish.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Stir the drink gently to combine the ingredients. Serve immediately and enjoy your Carajillo!
