Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 ½ oz creamer, cream, or milk (oat milk creamer recommended)
- 1 oz Cinnamon Simple Syrup (or other simple syrup)
- 1 shot freshly brewed espresso
- Handful ice
- ½ tsp cacao powder
- 3 coffee beans for garnish
Instructions
- Add Ingredients: Pour the creamer, cinnamon simple syrup, and freshly brewed espresso into a cocktail shaker.
- Shake with Ice: Add a good handful of ice to the shaker and shake vigorously for about 10 seconds to chill and combine the ingredients.
- Optional Dry Shake: For an extra foamy espresso martini, strain out the ice and shake vigorously again without ice (dry shake).
- Strain and Garnish: Strain the mixture into a coupe glass, dust with cacao powder, and garnish with 3 coffee beans. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- You can use decaffeinated espresso if preferred to make it caffeine-free.
- Any flavored simple syrup can be used instead of cinnamon for different flavor variations.
- For a vegan option, use plant-based creamers like oat or almond milk creamer.
- Shaking without ice after the initial shake creates a lovely frothy top layer.
