Method
Cocktail
Prepare espresso
Brew a fresh shot of espresso (about 1 oz). Use a hot, freshly pulled espresso and set aside briefly so it remains hot but not boiling; this helps create a rich crema when shaken.
Combine ingredients
Add 2 oz Grey Goose vodka, 1 oz Kahlúa, 1 oz hot espresso, and 0.25 oz simple syrup into a cocktail shaker.
Add ice and shake
Fill the shaker with ice (about 1 cup). Secure the lid and shake vigorously for 15–20 seconds. Vigorous shaking chills the drink and aerates the espresso to create a thick, velvety crema on top.
Double strain and pour
Discard ice or water from the chilled glass. Fine-strain the shaken cocktail into the chilled coupe or martini glass using a Hawthorne strainer and a fine mesh strainer if available to remove small ice shards and ensure a smooth surface.
Garnish
Garnish with three coffee beans placed on the crema in a triangle pattern.
Serve
Serve immediately while the crema is fresh and the cocktail is cold.
