Espresso Martinis
Description
Espresso Martinis are made by shaking shots of espresso with coffee liqueur such as Kahlúa and vanilla-flavored vodka over ice, producing a cold cocktail with rich coffee aroma and taste. The brief shake helps chill and mix the ingredients, creating a balanced drink that highlights coffee bitterness with sweet and vanilla notes.
The final touch of coffee bean garnishes adds a pleasant aroma and a visual cue to the dominant coffee element. The Martini glass showcases the drink's smooth, dark appearance.
Ingredients
- 1, 2, espresso 3 shots
- 2 ounces coffee liqueur like Kahlua
- 1 ounce vodka vanilla flavored
- coffee beans for garnish if desired
Instructions
- Add the espresso, liqueur and vodka to a cocktail shaker with ice and shake for 30 seconds. Pour in a glass and top with coffee beans.
