Caramel Espresso Martini

This classic cocktail has been on barlists since 1997 but has made a comeback in restaurants around the world in 2024. It is a simple cocktail to make: combining smooth espresso, vodka (traditionally), a coffee flavoured liqueur and a sweetener - the perfect pick-me-up after a long day. Because of the strong flavours of espresso, you can get creative with both the liquor used and add other liqueurs, non-traditional sweeteners and bitters to give your cocktail a unique flavour.
