A carajillo (Spanish: [kaɾa'xiʝo, -ʎo]) is a coffee drink to which a liquor is added. Similar to Irish coffee, it is traditionally served in Spain and several Hispanical American countries, such as Colombia and Venezuela, where it is usually made with brandy; Cuba, where it is usually made with rum; and in Mexico, where mezcal or a coffee liqueur such as Kahlúa or Tía María, or more commonly Licor 43, may be used. Spices such as cinnamon and fruit such as lemon peel are commonly added to more elaborate versions in Spain. Carajillo is usually served in a small glass.
