How to make an Espresso Martini
By Oz Hater | April 19, 2009
Espresso Martini
Living in the Northwest, we have many simple pleasures we take for granted: Clean air, green landscape, and of course, coffee. Oh how we LOVE our coffee. I think that our daily caffeine high takes our mind off of the rain. Anyways, what better way to get your fix than an intense caffeine dose with booze added to it.
What is in a Espresso Martini
- 1 oz cold Espresso
- 1/2 oz Vodka
- 1/2 oz Coffee Liqueur (Kahlua)
- 1 oz White Crème de Cacao
Directions to make an Espresso Martini
- Pour the alcoholic ingredients into a large glass or shaker tin , fill with ice
- Shake heavily until mix is very cold with small slivers of ice
- Add espresso, shake lightly
- Serve in a martini glass
- Garnish with 3 espresso beans
Optional Additions to Espresso Martini
- Use Vanilla Vodka
- Use a Chocolate Liqueur like Godiva instead of Coffee flavored Liqueur
- Serve in a chilled or frozen martini glass
- Drizzle chocolate syrup on the inside of the glass before adding the liquid
Advice of the day:
Don’t wait until you go to the Northwest to try an Espresso Martini. The weather still sucks and who cares about trees when you sip a couple of these.
