In Spain, this coffee cocktail is called Carajillo, perhaps from the Catalan phrase que ara guillo (“I’m leaving in a hurry!”)
The whipped cream on top isn’t traditional, but after we learned about how they do it at the famous Huber’s Cafe in Portland, Oregon, we couldn’t go back to any other recipe.
Huber’s Cafe serves theirs with a caramelized sugar-rimmed glass, which is wonderful but not required. We’ve included those instructions below, if you’re so inclined.
