The Espresso Martini is a modern classic, but adding a splash of Absolut Vanilla elevates it to a dessert-like experience. The natural vanilla notes bridge the gap between the bitter coffee and the smooth vodka base.
To craft this, combine 50ml of Absolut Vanilla, 25ml of fresh espresso, and 20ml of coffee liqueur in a shaker with plenty of ice. Shake vigorously until the mixture is chilled and frothy.
Strain into a chilled martini glass and garnish with three coffee beans. The result is a rich, velvety cocktail that highlights the aromatic profile of the spirit perfectly.
