Ingredients

  • 4 oz vodka
  • 2 oz Bailey's Irish Cream liqueur
  • 1 oz Kaluah
  • 4 shots espresso
  • 1 cup ice

Instructions

  • Start by brewing your espresso using your favorite method. If you don't have an espresso machine, don't fret! A French press or a moka pot will also work. Chill the espresso in the fridge for about half an hour.
  • To keep things cool and classy, pop your martini glasses into the freezer for a quick 10-minute spa treatment.
  • In a cocktail shaker combine vodka, Bailey's, coffee liqueur, and chilled espresso.
  • Toss in a bunch of ice cubes – the more, the merrier! They'll not only chill the party but also give your martini that enchanting frothy texture.
  • Now, secure the shaker's lid and let your inner bartender shine! Give it a vigorous shake like you mean it for a solid 10-15 seconds. The longer you shake, the frothier your martini will be.
  • Retrieve your martini glasses from the freezer and strain the fabulous mixture into the frosty glasses. A fine-mesh strainer or a trusty cocktail strainer will ensure no uninvited ice shards crash this soirée.
  • If you're feeling extra fancy (and why wouldn't you be?), garnish your creamy espresso martinis with a sprinkle of espresso beans or coffee beans. You can also sprinkle some cocoa powder on top for a delicious chocolate flavor.
