Pumpkin Spice Espresso Martini
Equipment
- Cocktail shaker
- Espresso maker
- Measuring jigger
- Martini glasses
Ingredients
- 8 ounces vodka
- 4 ounces coffee liqueur
- 4 shots freshly brewed espresso, cooled slightly
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 2 tablespoons pumpkin pie spice
- Ice cubes
- 4 cinnamon sticks
Instructions
- Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice cubes.
- Pour the vodka, coffee liqueur, cooled espresso, pumpkin puree, and pumpkin pie spice into the shaker.
- Secure the lid and shake hard for 20 seconds until the mixture is well combined and frothy.
- Strain the drink evenly into four chilled martini glasses.
- Place one cinnamon stick in each glass as a stirrer and garnish.
Notes
Chill the glasses ahead of time to keep the foam on top longer. If the pumpkin puree feels too thick, add an extra splash of espresso during shaking to loosen it. The cinnamon stick adds aroma without overpowering the drink, so skip it only if you prefer a clean rim.
