Espresso Martini Delight
A delightful and easy-to-make espresso martini, perfect for happy hour at home. Enjoy the rich coffee flavor balanced with vodka, and an optional luscious foam.
Equipment
- Cocktail Shaker
- Martini Glass
Ingredients
- 1 ounce Kahlua or your favorite coffee liqueur
- 1.5 ounces premium Vodka
- 1 ounce freshly brewed Espresso chilled for best results
- 0.125 tsp Salt optional, for a smoother taste
- 1 Egg White optional, for a luscious foam
- 3 Espresso Beans for an elegant garnish
Instructions
- Grab a cocktail shaker and fill it about halfway with ice cubes.
- Pour in the Kahlua, vodka, and your chilled espresso. If you're adding salt to enhance the flavors, include it now.
- For that luxurious foamy top, if using an egg white, first shake all ingredients without ice for about 15 seconds (this is called a "dry shake"). Then, add ice and continue to the next step.
- Secure the lid on your shaker tightly and shake it with enthusiasm for at least 30 seconds. You want the mixture to be very cold and wonderfully frothy.
- Strain the creamy cocktail into a chilled martini glass. Gently place three espresso beans on top as a sophisticated garnish. Sip and enjoy your perfectly balanced drink!
