Preparation

Preparation

1. Brew Espresso

Start by brewing a fresh shot of espresso. Allow it to cool slightly while you prepare the other ingredients.

2. Combine Ingredients

In a cocktail shaker, add 2 oz of Ketel One Vodka, 1 oz of Caffe Borghetti Espresso Liqueur, 0.5 oz of Vanilla Simple Syrup, and 1 oz of the freshly brewed espresso.

3. Add Ice

Fill the cocktail shaker with ice cubes, covering the liquid ingredients completely.

4. Shake Well

Seal the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until well chilled and frothy.

5. Strain and Serve

Using a fine mesh strainer, pour the mixture into a chilled martini glass. This will help achieve a smooth texture without ice shards.

6. Garnish

Garnish the drink with 3 coffee beans placed on the surface of the cocktail.
