Tips

One of my favorite Coconut Vodkas is Ciroc. But I’ve found Veil & Pinnacle Vodkas to be excellent, ‘flavored’ vodkas that are affordable.

Let’s not forget the espresso. I have a Nespresso coffee maker, so making a cup of espresso is quick and easy. They are not inexpensive, but I’ve been using mine daily for years now, so I’ve gotten my money’s worth. And having fresh espresso in your martini makes all of the difference.

Best Ever Economical Cocktail Shaker

You can’t mix a great martini without a great shaker. I have at least a dozen shakers, but one favorite. The shaker doesn’t leak; you won’t have to hit the shaker against the sink to get the top off, and the cap will measure from 1/2 to 1.5 ounces with clearly marked labels. Measure the perfect amount every time. And it is dishwasher safe!

And don’t forget the chilled martini glass. Nothing is worse than a martini in a warm glass. Check out these two that I highly recommend. Joy Jolt set of 6 martini glasses in multi-colors and Crafthouse by Fortessa, set of 4 martini glasses. They are both dishwasher-safe. Joy Jolt is a short martini glass, great for stacking in the freezer, and the Crafthouse by Fortessa is tall and elegant. Still, finding a good spot to lay it down in the freezer is harder.

How to make a Coconut Espresso Martini

Brew a fresh shot of espresso and allow it to cool to room temperature. If you’re short on time, ensure plenty of ice in your shaker to cool it down.

Combine the Coconut Vodka, Kahlua Coffee Liqueur, Baileys Irish Cream, and espresso in a cocktail shaker half full of ice and put it aside.
