Licor 43’s Baby Lager is presented in bespoke miniature glassware and mimics the look of a frothy, freshly poured pint with a layer of Licor 43 and cream liqueur. Beyond aesthetics, the rich cream liqueur pairs well with the vanilla and Mediterranean citrus notes in Licor 43.
Data from drinks importer-distributor Paragon Brands says that nearly half of Brits (47%) want a "baby" version of their favorite alcoholic drink and these shot-sized drinks are particularly appealing to Gen Z drinkers who grew fond of the Baby Guinness—a shot made with coffee liqueur and a float of Irish cream.
In line with this data, at bars and restaurants, adults are ordering more mini cocktails and cocktail shooter shots made with a mixture of multiple spirits over regular shots.
