1½ oz Licor 43 (or another vanilla-citrus liqueur)
2 tsp QuicKafe concentrate
2 oz hot or cold water
A rocks glass with one large ice cube
How to make it
Stir the concentrate into the water — that's your bold coffee base, stronger than drinking strength on purpose.
Pour the liqueur over the big cube, then the coffee over the top.
Stir gently and watch it turn the color of polished mahogany. Shake it with ice instead for the frothy 'carajillo batido' version.
☕ Good to know: This is Mexico City's favorite after-dinner drink for a reason: the liqueur brings all the sweetness, so nothing else is needed. 21+ only.
🍯 Flavor pairing: ORIGINAL or DECAF — a late-evening carajillo with DECAF is a genuinely civilized move.
