An old favourite: the Espresso Martini is an iconic drink and classic Kahlúa cocktail. Created in the late 1980s, this coffee cocktail is now making a comeback. Learn how to make the easy-to-prepare classic at home – and impress your guests with this stylish pick-me-up!
Ingredients
- 4 cl vodka
- 2 cl Kahlúa
- 2 cl espresso
- Ice cubes
- 3 coffee beans for decoration
Preparation
- Place the ice cubes in a shaker and add the espresso, vodka and Kahlúa.
- Shake together the ingredients vigorously for at least 10 seconds until a fine foam has formed.
- Pour the drink through a sieve into a Martini glass.
This cocktail contains just three components, so high-quality ingredients are essential. A good coffee liqueur and vodka form the base, while a well-prepared espresso rounds off the flavour. Espresso Monaco from our Dallmayr Röstkunst (art of roasting) range is made with 100% arabica beans and strikes an ideal balance with the Mexican coffee liqueur and the vodka.
Tip: Serve in a Martini glass and decorate with two coffee beans to transform this espresso cocktail into a stylish evening drink!
