Notes

One of the simplest official Licor 43 serves: shake over ice and strain, or build directly in the glass and stir. The lemon juice cuts through the sweetness of the liqueur. See more two ingredient cocktails.

About the ingredients

Licor 43: Licor 43, or Cuarenta y Tres (Spanish for '43'), is a Spanish liqueur, made in Cartagena, Spain. History Licor 43 was invented in 1946 by the siblings Diego, Angel, and Josefina Zamora, along with Emilio Restoy, Josefina's husband. The Licor 43 website states they based their recipe on the Liqvor Mirabilis (marvellous liquid), a golden, aromatic elixir produced and infused from local fruits and herbs in Carthago Nova during the 3rd century. Liqvor Mirabilis was encountered by the Romans, when they conquered the region in 209 BC; despite the Romans banning its production and consumption, the Carthaginians continued producing in secret. This legend served as the inspiration for the Zamoras' invention of Licor 43. The name of the modern-day liqueur originates from its use of 43 different ingredients; while its recipe is a closely guarded secret by the Zamora family, it is known to contain citrus and fruit juices, and to be flavoured with vanilla, among other aromatic herbs and spices.
