Espresso Martini Ingredients

Method

Espresso Martini Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Espresso

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

  2. 2

    Prepare the Shaker

    Take a cocktail shaker and fill it with ice cubes. This will chill the ingredients as you shake them together.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the vodka, freshly brewed espresso, coffee liqueur, and simple syrup into the shaker filled with ice.

  4. 4

    Shake the Cocktail

    Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds. This will mix the ingredients and create a frothy texture.

  5. 5

    Strain and Serve

    Using a cocktail strainer, pour the mixture into a chilled martini glass. Make sure to strain out any ice.

  6. 6

    Garnish

    Garnish the drink with three coffee beans placed on the surface of the cocktail for an elegant touch.
