It’s the weekend!!! To some of us, that actually doesn’t matter…we are always working, lol. In the world of a blogging, weekends can be your busiest time of the week. So today I am sharing the perfect cocktail for late night, the Espresso Martini! That’s right, no one will be falling asleep after a couple of these cocktails…..
How to make an Espresso Martini:
Each Espresso Martini contains 1 ounce of Espresso, 1 ounce of coffee liqueur {Kahlua®}, and 2 ounces of vanilla vodka. That is some serious caffeine if you get carried away and have a few too many…so don’t do that! 😉
Shake it all together in a cocktail shaker…..
and strain into a martini glass…..
Garnish with a few coffee beans…..
and you are ready to play a few rounds of Twister, or Scene-It, or maybe just a fun game of poker with some friends.
If you do not like coffee, this is definitely not the drink for you!! Personally, I like my drinks sweeter…and fruitier, but I have always wanted to try one and this seemed like the perfect time to do just that. I will however start working on a Mochatini, I think that will be more my cup of tea…so to speak. 😉
