    Today we'll highlight 4 cocktails that feature Licor 43, a Spanish liqueur that embodies centuries of tradition and flavor. The Agircole Guava Cooler from Smuggler's Cove is an excellent introductory drink to Rhum Agricole. Beachbum's Own is an original drink by Jeff the Beachbum Berry and of all the drinks today, this one showcases Licor 43 the most. The Best Year was a drink by Bobby Botuga from Tip's Restaurant in Valencia California. I'm adapting this into the 2nd Best Year and subbing in Gin and homemade lime cordial. Finally, a variation of the Tradewinds by substituting the apricot liqueur for Licor 43.
    Licor 43 is a Spanish vanilla liqueur that blends of warm vanilla, Mediterranean herbs, and subtle citrus notes. This liqueur's inspiration stretches back two thousand years to the city of Cartagena, Spain, where a golden elixir was first enjoyed by the Romans. Fast forward to 1946 when the Zamora family created the modern-day Licor 43 using 43 natural ingredients.

      CZcams is weird. I subscribed as I saw the potential and appreciate the effort. I think as his production value and presentation skills improve, people will follow. Also the algorithm is a game and can be hard to navigate. Tiki is pretty niche though. I hope he keeps it rolling and expands. There is room for more content like this in my week, so keep it coming.

    Well done…I really enjoy your presentations. One thing I quite enjoy is when you alter the recipes. Give us your reasons for what you have chosen to alter. Then you give us your true opinion of your results. Regardless, if the results are positive or negative. This for me helps us learn together. Much appreciated…… cheers 🍹

    Whenever a recipe calls for a vanilla liqueur I reach for Licor 43 just for the little more depth, maybe even swap as a partial for simple syrup. Works great in baking instead of vanilla extract use it as 1:2 or more. I saw the Best year recently which added a tweak of Aquavit, so the gin version here would be great. I'll need to play with it.

    I prefer a spiced tradewinds. 60ml Rumbullion, 30ml Giffard Abricot du Roussillon, 30ml lemon juice and 30ml Coco Reàl Cream of Coconut. Shaken not flash blended. You should try it, it's one of those riffs which I think is just straight better than the original.

  • @videotasticz
    @videotasticz Před 9 měsíci +1

    Because of how simple Licor 43 is it is absolutely perfect in a Carajillo, or really, any coffee cocktail. Never considered its usage in Tiki but can understand how subdued it would get

    So something fun i noticed. At Latitude 29, Berry's bar, the name sake drink lists identical recipes to the Beachbums own except it calls for a house made vanilla syrup ( in lieu of licor 43) and uses only el dorado 8 year. Its incredibly easy to drink and delicious

      @@makeanddrink i found it to be better personally. I think Jeff Berry went to using the syrup instead of licor 43 due to having multiple uses for the syrup rather than the liqueur (nui nui), and the result is fairly similar in flavor but just a touch richer in the best ways.

    Esse tem sido o meu canal favorito de todos. Eu como brasileiro e amante de rum e cachaça acho desafiador trazer as receitas do canal para a realidade do meu país. Algumas modificações com cachaça se tornam incríveis, por sinal. Uma outra coisa que temos aqui são destilados de melado de cana, não confundir com melaço, que dão resultados sensacionais! Uma pena um canal de tão alto nível não ser devidamente reconhecido. Mas uma coisa é fato, seu conteúdo tem chegado a todos os cantos do mundo

    Derek, you are answering questions I ask myself all the time, "What do I make with this "fill-in-the-blank" (relatively non-essential, rarely used spirit) that I recognize but rarely see on cocktail menus?" Should I give it space in my bar and face a round of "You have too many liquor bottles that are just sitting there collecting dust" banter.
    You have tackled 2 of the big three Vanilla spirits (Licor 43 and Galliano); you only have Tuaca left to showcase. I am not sure if you are considering a series on "underused" spirits but if you do you will be doing yeoman's work. Ancho Reyes, Amaretto, Drambuie, Becherovka, Benedictine, Creme de Cacao, Creme de Menthe, Creme de Violette and all the various fruit liqueurs.

    • @makeanddrink
      @makeanddrink  Před 9 měsíci +1

      Definitely planning on doing more videos that highlight specific liqueurs. Nothing else in the works right now but probably will not be doing Tuaca. Need to venture off of the vanilla train and try something else. It's fun to do and I have the same questions everyone else has. What else can I do with this liqueur?

      They’re usually tropical or tiki cocktails with many ingredients and not meant to be 3 ingredient drinks. You can always choose to sub for your preference, or you may find that a vodka soda better suits your needs.
