Ingredients

2 oz Vodka
1 oz Coffee liqueur (e.g., Kahlúa)
1 oz Freshly brewed espresso
0.5 oz Simple syrup
1 cup Ice cubes
3 pieces Whole coffee beans (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Start by brewing a fresh shot of espresso and let it cool slightly, ensuring it's not too hot to handle.

Step 2

Fill a cocktail shaker with 1 cup of ice cubes.

Step 3

Add 2 oz of vodka, 1 oz of coffee liqueur, 1 oz of the brewed espresso, and 0.5 oz of simple syrup to the shaker.

Step 4

Secure the shaker lid and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds. The goal is to create a rich, frothy layer from the espresso and chill the mixture thoroughly.

Step 5

Strain the cocktail into a chilled martini glass using a fine-mesh sieve to remove any ice chips or froth clumps.

Step 6

Garnish the cocktail by carefully placing 3 whole coffee beans on top of the frothy layer. They traditionally represent health, wealth, and happiness.

Step 7

Serve immediately and enjoy your perfectly crafted Wake Me Up Martini!
