Irish Cream Espresso Martini
Level up your winter evenings with this ten-minute cocktail.
If you’d like a chocolate or cinnamon version of this simply add 25g chocolate spread to the ingredients before shaking, and top with a sprinkle of ground cinnamon for serving.
Makes: 1 cocktail
Time: 10 mins
Equipment needed: cocktail shaker, cocktail glass.
Ingredients
- 70ml Deluxe Irish Cream Liqueur
- 70ml vodka
- 60ml espresso coffee
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 handful ice cubes
- White chocolate shavings, to serve
Method
- Place all ingredients into a cocktail shaker along with ice. Use fresh-from-the-freezer ice, as melting ice is too watery and will dilute the martini. You want the ice to smash up while chilling the liquid down as this is what creates the frothy top.
- Once shaken, tap the side to break the vacuum seal and using a separate strainer, or the strainer on the shaker, pour into chilled glasses. Garnish with white chocolate shavings.
