Recipe Espresso Martini

An Espresso Martini is a cocktail made from espresso, vodka, Kahlúa (a coffee liqueur), and sugar or simple syrup. It is typically prepared by mixing cold espresso, vodka, Kahlúa, and sugar or simple syrup in a cocktail shaker with ice, which is then shaken and strained into a chilled cocktail glass.

What sets the Espresso Martini apart is the combination of coffee and alcohol. The use of high-quality espresso and Kahlúa gives the cocktail a strong coffee aroma and flavor, while the vodka adds a subtle alcoholic note. The sweetness of the sugar or simple syrup helps to balance the bitter taste of the espresso and create a pleasant harmony.

Espresso Martinis are usually served in bars and restaurants as an aperitif or digestif and are especially popular among coffee and cocktail lovers.
