Let Your Tastebuds Be Your Passport With A Splash of Licor 43


Cuarenta y tres means 43 and is reference to the 43 ingredients of Licor 43 liquer.  I'm not sure of all 43 ingredients used to make Cuarenta y Tres, but with the subtle hint of vanilla, I'm sure it ranks among the 43.  Velvety smooth with aromatic citrus tones which can be served warm, chilled, frozen or incorporated into some of your favorite desserts like white chocolate mousse and madelines. 

Ingredients:
1/2 cup Licor 43
2 cups sweet cream
250 grams white chocolate
340 grams berry
 Directions:
Stir.  
Mix.  
Cool.  
Top with whipped cream. 

There's even a recipe to amp up your Madelines recipe with a hint of Licor 43.  This ain't grandma's rum cake.  This is a very sultry, complex liquer sure to delight your guests.  

I tried it on the rocks and detected so many aromas.  There's definitely vanilla, perhaps a little citrus and some spices, maybe cinnamon.  Licor 43 is so complex, each sip kept me guessing so needless to say, Licor 43 did not disappoint.   I also tried it with pineapple juice and there was definitely a little pina colada in the making.  I'll have to work on that recipe and share.
My pantry is filled with various syrups, extracts and liquers which I use to flavor baked goods and I will definitely have to experiment a little with Licor 43I have a few rum cake recipes and may try switching the rum for a little Licor 43.  I have a few weeks until the next #GNO (Girl's Night Out) is scheduled at my house, so I'll be sure to let you know what the girls say.
In the words of my fellow foodies, if you're only drinking your wine or liquers, you are missing out on a dining experience.  Let your tastebuds be your passport.

Life is a Beach Giveaway Hop

Spring is in full swing.  The birds are singin'.  The pollen is falling and temps are FINALLY warming up.  So what better time time to start planning our Summer getaways. This year - as always - we are beach bound.  It's one of our fave places to visit given we only get to the beach once or twice a year.   Last year's visit to Cozumel was one for the record books. We stopped by this little restaurant and dined on grilled shrimp in a cabana right on the beach.   'Ohana also has a line of tequilas in flavors I had never seen before.  Tropical flavors such as coconut, mango and pina colada.  Hubby and I tried the 'Ohana peanut butter tequila.  The owner said folks either love it or hate it... we LOVED it!!! As I was sipping all I could think of was how good this peanut butter tequila would taste as a baste on my tequila wings.  It would be like a tequila satay wings type dish. * * * G I V E A W A Y * * * One lucky Three ...

Here’s your chance to start the new year off with a win. One lucky Three Boys and an Old Lady blog reader will receive a $15 Walmart eGift card. $10 may not seem like a lot but it’s enough to stock up on some last minute Christmas clearance gifts. Trust me. I bought a 6’ Christmas tree WITH lights, 2 animal massagers, 3 Jelly Belly BeanBoozled Jelly Beans Mystery Bean Dispenser, Christmas cards and wrapping paper less than $20 during an after Christmas Walmart shopping trip.

The regular price is $10 so to find them on sale for 50 cents was a deal. We cleared the shelves. A few rows down we spotted some anima...
