Coffee Martini
The coffee martini or espresso martini is a coffee and vodka based cocktail. The vodka compliments the bold coffee taste and creates a smooth, creamy cocktail that can be enjoyed at any time.
Equipment
- Espresso Maker
- Martini Glass
- Cocktail Shaker
Ingredients
- 2 Oz (60ml) Vodka
- 1-2 Oz Coffee Liqueur
- 15 Ml Espresso Coffee Freshly Brewed
- 3 Medium Cubes Ice Cubes
- 1 Squirt Whipped Cream
- 2 Individual Coffee Beans
Instructions
- Prepare your cocktail shaker (or alternative) and martini glass. Add as much ice as you prefer to the glass. We recommend adding 3-4 cubes that are medium-sized, enough so that your drink isn’t watered down.
- Next pour the espresso, coffee liqueur, and vodka into the cocktail mixer. Shake well.
- Pour the mixture over your ice into the martini glass.
- Add whipped cream on top with some coffee beans as a garnish (optional).
Notes
You don’t have to add ice to the coffee martini. Just remove ice from the recipe and follow the instructions the same. Some people prefer not to have ice, so their drink doesn’t get watered down.
If you want to upgrade and experiment more on your coffee martini, you can either use Baileys or Kahlua as your coffee liqueur. Some people prefer to have their coffee martini creamy.
If you want bolder coffee flavors, you can increase the amount of espresso.
