A fine and complex Spanish liqueur, an elixir of forty three ingredients including citrus and exotic fruit, vanilla, aromatic herbs and spice, from a recipe that dates back to ancient Carthage. A version ingratiated itself into Spanish culture and was even present on the three voyages of Columbus to America. Licor 43 has a sweet citrus vanilla character, it is immensely refreshing on its own, over ice, or as a base in the most tittilating cocktails. The requisite ingredient in Caipirinha 43, where it is coddled with lime, rum and sugar.
