Taste Profile
Invented in London in the 1980's, the Espresso Martini has become a staple of modern-day mixology, and a favoured after-dinner treat. Blending vodka, coffee liqueur and espresso, Dick Bradsell created one of the world's most popular "pick me up" drinks. Rumor has it that Bradsell created the Espresso Martini at the request of a supermodel guest.
The Espresso Martini boasts a bold and invigorating flavour profile, blending the robust bittersweetness of expertly-brewed coffee with the smooth warmth of vodka. You may taste vanilla, nuts, and even some dark chocolate as you savour this creamy delight. It's the perfect balance of caffeine kick and indulgent sweetness, ideal for late-night sipping, or even dessert!
How To Serve
Open the full aperture can and add ice until ⅔ full. Attach and secure the ShakerCan and shake hard for 8-12 seconds. Strain it neat into a 'Martini' glass or coupe and lay 3 coffee beans in a three-pointed star pattern on the foam. Consider placing the glass or coupe into your fridge for a few minutes before making the cocktail to chill it. This will allow your drink to stay cold for longer!
