The Espresso Martini has two wonderful purposes in your life: to give you a jolt at the same time as it helps you unwind. That makes it kind of perfect to have right after a delicious but coma-inducing meal so you can wake up and enjoy the rest of your evening.
Be aware that this drink contains a lot of caffeine! The flavors here are strong, bitter, black coffee with sweet vanilla. This is no alcoholic version of a vanilla latte – it’s an intense drink.
Recipe
- 1 ounce Starbucks coffee liqueur
- 2 ounces Stoli Vanil vodka
- 2 ounces espresso
Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Pour in all ingredients and shake thoroughly. Strain the mixture into a chilled martini glass.
