The Perfect Espresso Martini
It's all in the beans! Here are a few tips that will take your espresso martinis to the next level:
Invest in high quality beans. If you want a high quality martini, it starts with the espresso. I have a subscription from Storyville Coffee in Seattle that I enjoy using for my iced cappuccinos and martinis.
Use tequila instead of vodka. This is definitely a personal preference, but if you enjoy tequila it will create a better taste profile.
Use Mr. Black liqueur. This liqueur is completely life-changing, and an imperative element to your martini. If you like a creamy martini with Kahlua/Bailey’s, you can still add some in.
Use a fine strainer. This will help to create beautiful foam without any tiny broken ice chips.
Don’t skimp out on your arm workouts. The more arm muscle, the more foam.
