Espresso Martini

Espresso Martini

INGREDIENTS 
1.5 oz Vodka
2 oz Switters Iced Coffee
0.5 oz Liqueur of Your Choice
DIRECTIONS 
Combine vodka, Switters, and your liqueur of choice in a cocktail shaker with ice.
Shake vigorously until the shaker is frosty and your hands feel like they’re in the Arctic! The colder and frothier, the better.
Strain into a chilled martini glass, and enjoy this classic coffee cocktail.

The Switters Espresso Martini is the epitome of simplicity done right. The bold, rich coffee flavors from Switters take center stage, offering a clean and robust taste without the need for a coffee liqueur, espresso machines, or concentrates. Yall, it doesn't get easier than this! Using Switters for your Espresso Martinis makes a silky smooth, slightly boozy, and perfectly balanced—a coffee cocktail that feels effortlessly indulgent. The foamy top layer adds a creamy texture that feels like a hug in every sip. Cheers to good coffee, good company, and good times!

Whether you’re channeling a chic cocktail party, a casual after-dinner treat, or a quiet night by candlelight, the Espresso Martini brings a sophisticated yet approachable vibe to any occasion. It’s a versatile classic—perfect for impressing guests, pairing with dessert, or enjoying solo during a moment of indulgence. Feeling creative? Experiment with Switters' seasonal coffees or variety of roasts to make this drink uniquely yours.
