HOW TO MAKE THE PERFECT MARTINI ESPRESSO

To make a perfect Martini Espresso, you will need the following ingredients and equipment:

Ingredients:

  • 1 shot of espresso

  • 60 ml of vodka

  • 30 ml of coffee liqueur (e.g., Kahlua)

  • Ice cubes

  • Coffee beans (for garnish)

Equipment:

  • Cocktail shaker

  • Martini glass

  • Jigger or measuring tool

  • Strainer

Here's a step-by-step guide to making a perfect Martini Espresso:

  1. Brew a shot of espresso using an espresso machine or a moka pot. Ensure that it is strong and flavorful.

  2. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice cubes. The shaker should be large enough to hold all the ingredients.

  3. Measure and pour 60ml of vodka into the shaker.

  4. Measure and add 1 ounce of coffee liqueur (e.g., Kahlua) to the shaker.

  5. Add the freshly brewed shot of espresso to the shaker.

  6. Close the shaker tightly and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds. This helps to chill and mix the ingredients thoroughly.

  7. Grab your martini glass and strain the mixture from the shaker into the glass. The strainer will help remove any ice chips or coffee grounds.

  8. Optionally, you can garnish your Martini Espresso with a few coffee beans on top of the drink. This adds a nice touch and enhances the coffee aroma.

  9. Serve your Martini Espresso immediately while it's still chilled and fresh. Enjoy responsibly!
