Caffè corretto, an Italian beverage, consists of a shot of espresso “corrected” with a shot of liquor, usually grappa, brandy or sambuca. It is also known (outside of Italy) as an “espresso corretto”.
It is widely consumed in Italy and usually taken after lunch or dinner.
It is ordered as “un caffè corretto grappa”, “caffè corretto cognac”, “caffè corretto sambuca”…, depending on the liquor the customer would like to have added to the coffee.
To make a caffè corretto you just have to pour the espresso into the cup and add 10 ml of grappa, or a different kind of liqueur.
