Ingredients
- 1 1/2 oz vodka
- 1 oz coffee liqueur e.g., Kahlúa
- 1 oz freshly brewed espresso cooled
- coffee beans for garnish (optional)
- 1/2 oz simple syrup (optional - for sweetening and balancing taste)
Instructions
- Fill a cocktail shaker with ice.
- Add vodka, coffee liqueur, and cooled espresso to the shaker.
- Shake vigorously for about 10-15 seconds to ensure proper mixing and chilling.
- Strain the mixture into a chilled martini glass.
- If desired, garnish with three coffee beans placed on top for a stylish touch. Serve immediately and enjoy your Espresso Martini!
Notes
- To make a non-alcoholic version, replace the vodka and coffee liqueur with non-alcoholic alternatives, like a non-alcoholic vanilla-flavored spirit and coffee syrup. Obviously, the taste will lack that freshness and sophistication of an actual espresso martini but the teetotalers among you will be able to raise a glass without worrying about alcohol.
- I am an espresso lover so I would strongly advice against it but you can add 1/2 oz of simple syrup (or any other syrup). It will help balance the bitterness of the espresso and the coffee liqueur with its own sweetness.
