To make a carajillo, you’ve got to pick up a bottle of Licor 43—no substitutions allowed! First created in Spain in the 1940s, the “43” in this liqueur’s name refers to the number of ingredients in its recipe.

While we don’t know what’s in Licor 43, most people describe it as having a sweet, vanilla-like taste with hints of custard, cocoa, and spice. Officially, the ABV on Licor 43 is 31 percent, which makes it a perfect addition to brunch time!

Although Licor 43 is best known for its role in the carajillo, you’ll soon discover this liqueur fits in well with many of the other drinks on Tribe CBD’s blog. Anything you feel could use a touch of warm spice and vanilla will be a perfect fit for Licor 43.

Ingredients

• 1 – 2 shots of espresso

• 1 ½ oz Licor 43

• 1 dropperful Tribe CBD oil 

Directions

• Brew your preferred amount of espresso

• Add ice to a rocks glass

• Pour 1 ½ oz of Licor 43

• Gently pour your espresso over the back of a barspoon into the rocks glass

• Top with Tribe CBD oil

As crazy as it may sound, CBD and coffee are a match made in heaven! OK, we’ll admit, we don’t have a ton of scientific evidence on the benefits of mixing CBD with caffeine. However, there are loads of anecdotal reports that suggest CBD could help people avoid caffeine-related jitters.

If you’ve never tried Tribe CBD oil in a cup of java, we’d encourage you to give it a go. Even people who are extremely sensitive to caffeine notice a reduction in side effects when using this calming cannabinoid.   

While a shot of espresso will get you moving, it could be a touch intense for some drinkers. That’s why Tribe CBD created our berry-flavored CBD Energy Shots. Made with a blend of CBD and natural caffeine, these ridiculously sweet shots will get you pumped without anxious side effects. The addition of herbs like ginseng and guarana will also help shake off any residual sleepiness.
