Instructions

The Twilight Zephyr Carajillo is a modern and refreshing twist on the traditional Carajillo, which is a Spanish drink combining coffee with brandy, rum, or whiskey. This innovative variant brings together the rich flavor of coffee and Licor 43 with the unique addition of a citrus zephyr, subtly infusing the cocktail with a touch of zesty freshness. Designed to awaken your senses while still providing that comforting warmth, it's perfect for both evening enjoyment and as a sophisticated after-dinner digestif. Ingredients: - 2 oz Licor 43 - 1 oz Freshly brewed espresso - 0.5 oz Orange-infused simple syrup - 2 dashes Orange bitters - Orange peel (for garnish) - Ice cubes - Sparkling water (optional) Instructions: 1. Brew a fresh shot of espresso and allow it to cool slightly. 2. In a shaker, combine the Licor 43, cooled espresso, orange-infused simple syrup, and orange bitters. 3. Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously until well chilled. 4. Strain the mixture into a chilled, clear coffee cup or a martini glass to highlight the fusion of colors. 5. If desired, add a splash of sparkling water for a slight effervescence. 6. Twist an orange peel over the drink to release its oils, then drop it in as a garnish. The Twilight Zephyr Carajillo, with its sophisticated balance of coffee and citrus, makes for an innovative and invigorating cocktail experience. Serve in a clear coffee cup or martini glass to showcase the visual appeal of this delightful concoction. Enjoy as a unique conclusion to a meal or as a stimulating late-afternoon indulgence.
