Ingredients
The layers of a barraquito are normally:
- Coffee

- Condensed milk
Other ingredients typically used:

Preparation
The condensed milk is first added, followed by the liqueur, espresso and lemon peel (in this order). Milk (can be frothed by any means available) is then added and cinnamon is sprinkled on top.[3]
