1
Brew the Espresso
Start by brewing a strong cup of espresso. Use an espresso machine or stovetop espresso maker, and then let it cool slightly while you prepare the other ingredients.
2
Combine Ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, add the freshly brewed espresso, vodka, coffee liqueur, and simple syrup.
3
Add Ice
Fill the shaker with ice cubes until it's about three-quarters full.
4
Shake the Mixture
Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds. This will chill the mixture and create a frothy top.
5
Strain and Serve
Using a strainer, pour the mixture into a chilled martini glass. Aim for a smooth pour to maintain the frothy layer on top.
6
Garnish
Garnish with three coffee beans placed on top of the frothy layer for a decorative finish.
