Okay, let’s be honest. I can’t handle shots (minus the mandatory tequila shots with cousins during the holidays).
During my younger college years, my girlfriends and I loved sweet, candy-like shooters like B-52, Lemon Drop, and Purple Hooter. It was all my sweet tooth could stomach.
Long gone are those days. At this age, I don’t ever want to order such drinks from a bar. I can only image the looks I’d get from the bartender or mixologist.
However, I have to let you in on a secret. I have met a new cocktail shooter that is worthy to be drunk.
Have you had a Licor 43 Mini Beer?
In the words of Penny Hartz (of the hilarious and laugh-inducing show, Happy Endings), “it is ah-MAH-zing!”
Remember a couple of weeks ago when I made that coconut coffee cocktail using Licor 43? Well, my love for this sweet vanilla liquer continues.
Though it’s called a mini “beer,” there is no beer in this drink recipe. Nope.
Only two ingredients: Licor 43 and heavy cream. That’s it. That’s all you need for a happy and oh-so-delicious sip!
CHEERS!
note: The lovely folks at Licor 43 provided me with the super cute mini mugs.

I love this shot
Do you whip the cream till it is a little thick?
I just pour the heavy cream right out of the container. However, you can slightly whip it until thick, if preferred.
where do u get the heavy cream
It’s available at any supermarket. It can also be labeled at whipping cream.
Any grocery store in the milk Mark
In the dairy section of your local grocery store.
I just had my first one for my birthday this past week. It’s delicious and EASY to make. I remember when this liquer came in the early 80’s!
Awesome! Happy belated birthday!
I love it, especially the little mugs! I’ll get myself a bottle of Licor 43 and try it out. After I find and buy those mini mugs of course :)
