Cocktail of the week: Cometa’s carajillo – recipe | The good mixer

<p>The classic Mexican combo of espresso and Licor 43 gets a shot in the arm with a decent hit of cold-brew coffee liqueur</p><p>The carajillo is a ubiquitous drink found across Mexico, and it comes in many forms. Some bars simply pour espresso over ice and add a shot of <a href="https://licor43.com/">Licor 43</a>, while others shake coffee with the liqueur and serve it straight up. Whatever the variation, the non-negotiables are coffee and Licor 43. Our version takes those two core ingredients and lengthens the drink with a light, delicious cold-brew coffee liqueur. It’s the perfect serve for a warm afternoon, a sweet after-dinner treat or an uplifting nightcap.</p><p>Tom King, head bartender, <a href="https://cometa.restaurant/">Cometa</a>, London W1</p> <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/food/2026/sep/11/cocktail-of-the-week-cometa-carajillo-recipe">Continue reading...</a>
