Instructions

  1. Ideally, chill a glass in the freezer for a few minutes before using. Place around 4 or 5 pieces of ice in a glass (so that it is around half full) and if you haven't chilled the glass before, let the ice sit a minute to help cool the glass down.
  2. Pour the licor 43 over the ice.
  3. Carefully pour the espresso into the glass - if you pour slowly, it will float on top of the licor 43 and give a nice layered effect. Mix before drinking (drink soon after adding the coffee).

Notes

  • There's a bespoke licor 43 glass that this is often served in commercially - it's a rounded glass with a thick stem. However a rocks glass or tumbler also works well. 
  • If you like you can also make a shaken version of this where you shake the ingredients with ice then serve.
