CUARENTA Y TRES

The National Liquer from Spain

It was around 200 BC in Cartagena when the Romans discovered a delicious bright yellow liqueur which was called LIQUOR MIRABILIS. It is supposed to be made up of 43 secret ingredients which certainly include vanilla, other aromatic herbs and spices, and citrus and fruit juices. Today, Licor 43 is shipped to over 60 countries throughout the world and as such it is Spain's most exported liqueur. The sheer number of special ingredients make Licor 43 ideal for a whole range of cocktails. Some popular examples are:-
Vanilla Daiquiri 40ml Bacardi Superior 20ml Licor 43 15ml Fresh lime juice 10ml Fresh lemon juice 12.5ml Champagne syrup [1 glass Perrier Jouet, 1/2 glass unrefined caster sugar] 4 Grinds black peppercorns Method: Add all ingredients to mixing glass fill with cubed ice and shake hard for ten seconds. Fine strain Glass: Frozen coupe
43 Strawberries Pour Licor 43 over fresh strawberries (or other berries) and add whipped cream.
