Licor 43 brings citrus, vanilla, and caramel that soften the coffee: the drink stays light even though it's rich. Shake enough to dilute — that's what makes the sour refreshing. The double strain catches ice shards; swirling the shaker while straining keeps the foam from getting stuck in the fine strainer.
