How to Make the Best Espresso Martini “Evah”!

No “EVAH” is not a typo…I am from Massachusetts and that’s just how we talk!

Are you looking for an espresso martini with Baileys? Or are you looking for a martini that uses vanilla vodka, Frangelico to add a little bit of a nutty flavor, Kahlua for an added coffee kick, or adding some real espresso to truly make it an espresso martini? This recipe has just the right amount of all of these delicious flavors to tie it all together into absolute perfection!

Note – My martini glasses are not your average size! They are 12 oz.

This outstanding espresso martini recipe is great anytime of the year. It goes especially well with a chocolatey dessert! I have finally perfected it and both my husband and brother have told me to never change it; this includes the espresso coffee and ingredients to make it. Also, don’t skip the coffee beans on top…they do add flavor. Just make sure the guests drinking it know they are not chocolate beans for eating 🙂

If you don’t already own one, you will definitely need a cocktail shaker set. I like the 2 shaker versions without the lid. I find the lids get stuck and can be extremely hard to pull apart!

Notes

I like to prepare a batch ahead of time so I am not tied to shaking cocktails all night long! Prepare in a container in advance and let it steep in the refrigerator. Just multiply the ingredients by the number of martinis you expect to serve!
