Production of Horchata Vegan Vanilla Liqueur by Licor 43

The base of this vegan liqueur comes from the world of traditional horchata from Valencia. Traditionally, horchata is made from tiger nuts, water and sugar. For Licor 43's Horchata Vegan Vanilla Liqueur, a plant-based blend serves as the foundation. Tiger nuts form the core. They provide the nutty, slightly marzipan-like note. A carefully balanced mix of sugar, water and plant-based ingredients is added. This creates a creamy structure without the use of milk.

Selected essences and extracts contribute the characteristic Licor 43 note. The original Licor 43 recipe includes a secret blend of herbs, spices, fruits and citrus notes. This variant is also built on that foundation. High-quality vanilla forms the heart of the aromatic profile. It gives the liqueur its deep, warm sweetness. Cinnamon complements the vanilla and adds delicate spice. Almond flavor rounds out the profile and intensifies the typical horchata impression.

Production begins with the preparation of the tiger nuts. They undergo a cleaning process followed by milling. This creates an aromatic tiger-nut mixture. The mixture is infused with water so that its flavors, oils and natural sweetness can dissolve. After extraction, the production process separates the solid components from the liquid. The result is an aromatic horchata base.

At the same time, the aromatic component with vanilla, cinnamon and the typical Licor 43 notes is prepared. The spices are placed in alcohol so that their delicate aromas can dissolve. This step requires time and great care. After maceration, the liquid becomes clear and intense. This spice and vanilla extract is then blended into the plant-based horchata base.

The spirit then receives its finishing touches. Alcohol, sugar and the horchata liquid form a harmonious blend. Slow stirring distributes everything evenly. The liqueur then rests so the aromas can combine. During this phase, the creamy, rounded overall profile develops. Finally, Licor 43's Horchata Vegan Vanilla Liqueur undergoes filtration. This gives the texture a silky clarity. Filling the liqueur into 0.7-liter bottles completes the process. Every step is designed to create a vegan premium experience with a distinctly Spanish character.
