Erm... did you read the OP? Seems like your response is kinda tone deaf.
I'm not being facetious, aggressive or obtuse.I seriously don't see what is wrong with the response.
Literally from the wiki link they posted:" Mexico carajillos are usually made with espresso (or some other type of strong coffee) and "Licor 43" – a sweet vanilla-citrus flavored liquor – and poured over ice on a short glass. It is commonly drunk as a digestive after meals."
So thats the classic Mexican interpretation. The OP seems to be looking for a cream/milk additive. As with every drink thats recreated by every bartender there are personal spins put on a recipe. And I think the OP is on the right track thinking that it may be a cream/milk additive.
For the OP. Instead of just using cream or milk, blend some a coffee liqueur (I'd go with Tia Maria) into some heavy cream as the final additive.
