This classic espresso martini recipe is easy to make at home! Rich, smooth, and frothy, this coffee cocktail is great for brunch, happy hour, or as an after-dinner drink.

Ingredients

2 ounces vodka, we like Tito's
½ ounce coffee liqueur, such as Kahlúa
1 ounce espresso, freshly brewed*, or cold brew concentrate
½ ounce simple syrup
Ice
Coffee beans, for garnish

Instructions

Place the vodka, coffee liqueur, espresso or cold brew, and simple syrup in a cocktail shaker. Add ice and shake until well chilled.
Strain into a chilled cocktail glass, ideally a coupe glass or martini glass.
Garnish with coffee beans and serve.

Notes

*Allow the espresso to cool slightly before adding it to the cocktail shaker. You don't want it to melt the ice!
