Ingredients
  

  • 2 oz freshly brewed espresso cooled
  • 1.5 oz vodka
  • 1.5 oz Baileys Irish Cream
  • Ice cubes
  • Optional garnish: coffee beans

Instructions
 

  • Chill a martini glass by filling it with ice water. Set aside.
  • Combine espresso, vodka, and Baileys in a cocktail shaker with ice.
  • Shake vigorously for 15 seconds to create a frothy foam.
  • Empty the ice water and pat the martini glass dry.
  • Strain the cocktail into the glass and garnish with 3 espresso beans.

Notes

  • Using chilled espresso and vodka ensures your drink is cold without too much dilution from the ice. At minimum chill your martini glasses by placing ice in them. Drain and dry before pouring the shaken cocktail.
  • Shake the cocktail shaker vigorously for 15-20 seconds to create the perfect frothy espresso martini.
  • If you like a sweeter cocktail add some simple syrup to the cocktail shaker. For more coffee flavor add some coffee liqueur like Kahlua.
  • Add coffee beans, grated chocolate, or even a drizzle of caramel syrup to your espresso martinis for a pretty and elegant garnish.
