Equipment

  • Cocktail shaker: Essential for mixing ingredients smoothly.
  • Jigger or measuring cup: For measuring each ingredient.
  • Espresso machine or coffee maker: To brew fresh espresso.
  • Strainer: To get a smooth pour without ice chunks.
  • Martini glass: This is the classic glass choice for serving.

Ingredients

Here's what I include:

  • 1.5 oz vodka
  • 1 oz coffee liqueur: I usually go for Kahlúa.
  • 1 oz fresh espresso: Brewed and slightly cooled.
  • Ice: Use enough to fill the shaker halfway.
  • Optional garnish: Coffee beans or vanilla sugar for a sweet touch. ☕✨

These ingredients combined create a rich and smooth flavor, perfect for an evening treat.

Instructions

I make it in three simple steps:

  • Brew the espresso: Let it cool slightly after brewing.
  • Combine ingredients: Pour vodka, coffee liqueur, and espresso into a shaker filled with ice.
  • Shake vigorously: Shake until well chilled and the surface is frothy. Then, strain into a martini glass.
  • Feel free to garnish with coffee beans for a classic look. Enjoy your drink!

Notes

A few pointers to personalize your cocktail:
Sweetness levels: Adjust the coffee liqueur if you prefer it sweeter or less sweet.
Strong or mild: Add more espresso for a bolder coffee taste.
Garnish choices: Try a dusting of cinnamon or cocoa for extra flavor.
Stay flexible with the recipe and cater it to your liking! Enjoy making this wonderful espresso martini and share your experiences in the comments! 🍸
