Gonna ruin my liver but I luv it. Cheers After posting the above my curiosity got to me I had no idea what Licor 43 was. Hope you don’t mind that I am sharing what I learned on Wikipedia and other sites; Licor 43, or Cuarenta Y (i) Tres (Spanish and Papiamentu for "43"), is a Spanish liqueur. It is made from citrus and fruit juices, flavored with vanilla and other aromatic herbs and spices, for a total 43 different ingredients (hence the name). It is 31%abv / 62 proof and is a light bodied, sweet liqueur. In color it is yellow tinged with a touch of gold. The aroma is sharp, warm, and complex, with vanilla up front; and then tangy sweet fruit, spices, and an aged rum like presence. The flavor is similar to the aroma; vanilla, complex intermixed spices, tangy fruits, and hints of citrus, carried by a flavor similar to aged rum. I’m anxious to try this stuff.

Joined: Jun 10, 2004 Posts: 4256	H hiltiki Posted posted on Sat, Dec 17, 2016 10:40 AM David, I just bought this bottle of Licor 43 from Total wine for around $25. Really like the two glasses on the sides. There are a lot of recipes for tiki cocktails that ask for Licor 43, the best one is called Beachbum's Own from Beachbum Berry Remixed, excellent drink. Let me know if you need recipe.

Those glasses are cool too. We are having Red nosed Zebras this evening. (pic on page 369). I used Kraken in this drink for the first time and it was quite tasty. I don’t have Bacardi so I usually use Flor De Cana or some thing similar. I really enjoy the sweet-tart taste of this drink plus It looks very festive. I’ve seen em served in coupes and also in a martini glass. Look classy but they’re gone in one gulp. Merry Christmas Red-Nosed Zebra -Makes 1 cocktail 1.5 ounces Bacardi 8 rum  1/2 ounce fresh lemon juice  1/2 ounce fresh lime juice  1 ounce agave nectar  1 ounce strawberry purée  Crushed ice, 3 cranberries, 2 mint sprigs, for garnish Add all ingredients in a Boston Shaker (except garnish), fill half full with ice, and shake vigorously for 10 seconds. Strain into a margarita glass filled with ice. Garnish with a mound of crushed ice, cranberries, and mint sprigs to look like 2 green antlers, cranberries for eyes .

I've used it as a 151 replacement in a couple things with success. Decided to try my hand at mixing something up jet pilot like with about 10 ingredients and it turned out pretty damn good. I look forward to playing with this stuff some more.

It makes a great daiquiri and Barbados Swizzle as well! I need to try it in more recipes.

I see limes, coconut rum and bitters, which are not typically in a painkiller but could see them working in the right proportions. Also, a hand juicer? Making drinks for that many people, you oughta have something more industrial! Meanwhile, putting one of my Christmas gifts to use...

H hiltiki Tiki Socialite Hollywood, calif. Joined: Jun 10, 2004 Posts: 4256	H hiltiki Posted posted on Sat, Dec 31, 2016 12:14 AM Mike, the original recipe was from Atomic Tiki Punk, and he called it Kraken Killer. It was his take on a Pain Killer. I changed his recipe a little. I should have called this drink Kraken Killer. Anyways, I make this drink every year and my guests just love it. for 8 drinks 16 oz orange 16 oz pineapple 4 oz coco real 4 oz coconut liquor 16 oz kraken 6 oz lime 8 drops bitters I didn't mind using the hand juicer, it just worked out, I made the drink pretty quickly and it was ready 30 min before the guests arrived.
