Espresso Martini

Ingredients:

• 50 ml vodka

• 25 ml coffee liqueur

• 25 ml freshly brewed espresso

• 10 ml simple syrup (optional)

• Ice cubes

• Coffee beans (for garnish)

Preparation:

1. Main Mix:

   • Add the vodka, coffee liqueur, freshly brewed espresso, and simple syrup to a cocktail shaker.

   • Fill the shaker with ice cubes.

2. Shaking:

   • Secure the shaker lid tightly and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds. This step ensures all ingredients are well mixed and the cocktail is properly chilled.

3. Serving:

   • Strain the mixture into a martini glass using a cocktail strainer.

   • Garnish with a few coffee beans on top.

Serving Suggestions:

• Coffee Bean Garnish: Add 3 coffee beans on top of the martini glass for a classic presentation. This adds visual richness and emphasizes the coffee aroma.

• Chocolate Shavings: Sprinkle fine chocolate shavings on top to complement the coffee and create a delightful pairing.

• Chilled Glass: Pre-chill the martini glass to keep the cocktail cold for longer, especially refreshing on hot summer days.

Extra Tips:

• Sweetness Balance: If you prefer a sweeter cocktail, you can increase the amount of simple syrup. Ensure the mixture is fully homogeneous.

• Espresso Quality: Use freshly brewed, high-quality espresso to enhance the flavor of your cocktail. The better the espresso, the tastier the cocktail.

• Chilling the Glass: For an extra refreshing experience, chill your glass in the freezer for a few minutes before serving the cocktail. This helps keep the drink cold for longer.

Flavor Enhancements:

• Vanilla Touch: Add a few drops of vanilla extract to the shaker before shaking to introduce a subtle vanilla aroma to the cocktail.

• Creamy Texture: For a creamier texture, add a splash of cream to the mix. This adds richness and smoothness to the cocktail.

• Citrus Burst: For an added citrus burst, include a splash of orange liqueur or a few drops of orange bitters.

This cocktail, with its perfect blend of coffee and vodka, is an elegant and delicious option to offer your guests in the HORECA sector. Enjoy!
