The Most Delicious Espresso Martini Recipe Ever!

Are you ready to take your cocktail game to the next level? Look no further than the espresso martini. This caffeinated concoction is the perfect blend of sophistication and energy. But why settle for the ordinary when you can add a twist of tequila or vodka? In this article, we'll show you how to make the perfect espresso martini with a twist. Get ready to shake things up! 

What You'll Need

Before we dive into the recipes, let's make sure you have all the necessary ingredients. For both versions of the espresso martini, you'll need:

• 1 shot of espresso (make it strong, baby!)
• 1 shot of coffee liqueur (Kahlua is a classic choice)
• 1 shot of your preferred spirit (tequila or vodka)
• A handful of ice cubes
• Cocktail shaker (because shaking is half the fun)
• Cocktail glass (because presentation matters)
• JOYN capsules (because no one likes a hangover or alcohol flush)

The Tequila Twist

Ready to add a little Mexican flair to your espresso martini? Here's how:

1. Take your JOYN capsules so that you don't get a hangover. 
2. Pour the espresso, coffee liqueur, and tequila (we prefer Anejo for the vanilla notes) into the cocktail shaker.
3. Add a handful of ice cubes (the more, the merrier).
4. Shake it like you mean it! Imagine you're dancing to a lively mariachi band.
5. Strain the mixture into a chilled martini glass.
6. Garnish with a sprinkle of cocoa powder and a few coffee beans (three...duh).
7. Sip, savor, and let the tequila-infused caffeine take you on a wild ride!

The Vodka Variation

If tequila isn't your cup of tea (or shot of espresso), fear not! The vodka variation of the espresso martini is equally delightful:

1. Take your JOYN capsules so that you don't get a hangover. 
2. Combine the espresso, coffee liqueur, and vodka in the cocktail shaker.
3. Add a generous amount of ice cubes (go big or go home).
4. Shake it like you're a secret agent on a mission to save the world (shaken, not stirred).
5. Strain the mixture into a chilled cocktail glass.
6. For an extra touch of elegance, garnish with a twist of lemon peel or three coffee beans (because you're fancy like that).
7. Sip, savor, and let the smooth combination of vodka and caffeine transport you to a state of pure bliss!

Now that you know how to make the perfect espresso martini with a twist, it's time to get creative. Feel free to experiment with different spirits, liqueurs, or even flavored syrups. The possibilities are endless, and the results are always delicious. And the best part?! With JOYN you don't have to fear the hangover!

So grab your shaker, put on your favorite playlist, and get ready to shake up some espresso martini magic. Cheers! 🍸
