Espresso Martini
Ingredients
Step by step process
Preparation
- 1
Brew 120 ml of fresh espresso, pour into a bowl, and quickly chill over ice so it isn't hot.
- 2
Chill the cocktail glasses in the freezer for at least 5 minutes for better texture and a stable foam.
Mixing
- 3
Fill the shaker to the top with ice so the ingredients are thoroughly chilled and aerated.
- 4
Measure the vodka, coffee liqueur, chilled espresso, and sugar syrup, then pour everything into the shaker.
- 5
Shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds until condensation appears on the shaker and a rich, fine foam forms.
Serving
- 6
Strain the cocktail through a fine sieve into 4 chilled glasses without ice and evenly distribute the foam.
TIP:When pouring from a shaker, use a double strainer: first a fine strainer, then a filter with an even finer mesh. The result is a cleaner drink and smoother foam.
- 7
Garnish the surface of each cocktail with three coffee beans and serve immediately.
More tips:
For a more pronounced foam, use freshly brewed espresso with good crema and shake with more ice.
No sugar syrup? Dissolve a teaspoon of sugar in hot espresso and let it cool completely.
