Nespresso Martinis!!



I really struggle with cocktails because generally i find them far too sweet! That's why i enjoy G&T's, because they are refreshing rather than sickly sweet. *See: G&T Revised*

I also discovered an espresso martini to be a great cocktail that is delicious and one of the few that is not too sweet. It is more of a decadent cocktail than our refreshing G&T and does have some sweetness which is balanced out with the bitterness of the coffee. getting that perfect icy cold espresso martini with a thick creme is tops!

Of course when we find something we love we have to make our own new and improved version.

We make Nespresso martinis!!

Things you need:

  • Nespresso Machine
  • Nespresso pods of choice
  • a cocktail shaker
  • ice
  • vodka of choice. (Absolut is a good value for money option)
  • Kahlua
  • Coffee beans *optional*

Simple fill your shake with ice and add:

1.5 oz Kahlua
1 oz Vodka
1 oz Nespresso

Shake vigorously and strain into a chilled martini glass. Garnish with 3 espresso beans.
