The Espresso Martini (Low Sugar) Cocktail
The famous Espresso Martini is a top drink and a classic Kahlúa cocktail. Legend says that the famous late bartender legend Dick Bradsell invented the Espresso Martini in his London Bar in 1983 when a British supermodel walked up to him and gave him this peculiar request: “Can you please make something that will wake me up and then f**k me up?”
The Espresso Martini is a cocktail with a story, a history, and a legacy. It is also known as Espressotini.
Bartender Tip:
• Prepare the espresso coffee beforehand and let it chill. That will help to minimize the dilution, make your drink colder and even tastier!
• When shaking: Remember to wake the drink to life, do not rock it to bed. That will also improve the frothy foam on top of your final drink.
• When straining: Make sure to pour the drink brisk and swift from your shaker. That will help to get all that beautiful foam out and land on top of your drink.
