Instructions

  1. Brew Espresso: Brew 2 ounces of fresh espresso using your preferred brewing method to ensure a rich and robust coffee flavor.
  2. Combine Ingredients in Shaker: Fill a cocktail shaker with ice cubes, then add the freshly brewed espresso, 1.5 oz Baileys Irish Cream, 1 oz vodka, and 0.5 oz coffee liqueur.
  3. Shake: Secure the shaker lid and shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds to chill the mixture thoroughly and create a frothy texture.

  • Use decaffeinated espresso if you want a late-night version without caffeine.
  • Chill all the ingredients beforehand for the best texture and coldest serving temperature.
