The first sip of an espresso martini is nothing less than delicious magic. That is why\u00a0espresso martini preparation<\/a>\u00a0is so vital to a superb espresso martini. Before you stir this delectable drink into existence, you\u2019ll want to make sure that you have top-notch ingredients on hand. It\u2019s all about the prep work and that includes making sure you have all the right stuff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Choose High-Quality Vodka for Espresso Martinis<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While there are different liquors that you can use to make a martini, vodka is one of the most popular spirits to use as its base. Some\u00a0reports<\/a>\u00a0suggest that the earliest martinis made in the U.S. used gin liquors. However, vodka eventually rose to become a top contender for martini drinks. An espresso martini uses bold ingredients. So, the vodka you use should hold its own. High-quality vodkas are more refined and have a great, strong flavor. Choosing a great vodka is the first step in creating an amazing espresso martini.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Use the Best Espresso You Can Find<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to coffee, espresso is one of the strongest beans on the planet. One of the reasons that is the case is because espresso has a\u00a0lot more caffeine<\/a>\u00a0than your average cup of coffee. As this is an espresso martini, you can imagine that the espresso component should be fresh, fragrant, and flavorful. If you have a coffee grinder, consider grinding up some fresh espresso beans to brew for your martini. You\u2019ll notice the difference in quality and you\u2019ll also appreciate the flavor it adds to the drink.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kahlua Is A Must-Have Ingredient for Espresso Martinis<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are a lot of knock-offs on liquor shelves, but there is no substitute for Kahlua when it comes to espresso martinis. This coffee liqueur is enhanced by notes of vanilla and sugar. Kahlua provides the perfect complementary flavor to the espresso, while the sweet notes help cradle the sharpness of the vodka.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shake It To Make It<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Once you\u2019ve put all of your ingredients together, go ahead and give the drink a vigorous shaking. One of the visual hallmarks of a great espresso martini is the fine and frothy top layer. You can pull that off by shaking the concoction at the end, making sure that all of those wonderful liquids come together in perfect harmony.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Creating A Perfect Concoction<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Just as great cooking and baking take skill,\u00a0mixology<\/a>\u00a0is not that different. Mastering the art of making a phenomenal cocktail is something to be proud of and something that people can really appreciate. An espresso martini is a drink that uses three main components to pull off a deliciously complex and satisfying cocktail<\/a>. It could also inspire you to keep creating fantastic drinks. Don’t be afraid to let this cocktail lead you to masterful mixology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remember that recipes are also suggestions. So, if you prefer a ratio that adds more coffee than vodka or Kahlua, that\u2019s perfectly fine. This is about creating the best espresso martini for you. Happy mixing!<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
