Equipment

  • cocktail shaker
  • Martini glasses

Ingredients

  • 2 ounces vodka
  • 1 ounce brewed espresso cooled (or cold brew concentrate)
  • ½ ounce coffee liqueur
  • ½ ounce simple syrup
  • Coffee beans for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  • In a cocktail shaker, combine the vodka, espresso, coffee liqueur, and simple syrup.
  • Add ice and shake very hard to chill the cocktail and aerate the ingredients (this makes the foam on top of the cocktail).
  • Strain the cocktail into a chilled martini glass. Garnish with coffee beans and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Make sure to cool the coffee completely after brewing it, or it'll melt the ice and you won't have a nice chilled cocktail. To cool your hot espresso quickly, you can put it in the freezer for a few minutes.
