Espresso Martini

The Espresso Martini refers to a contemporary cocktail of vodka, fresh espresso coffee and coffee liqueur, shaken vigorously to form a foam on the surface. It was created in London in 1983 by bartender Dick Bradsell, a leading figure of modern British mixology. First called the Vodka Espresso, it has been added to the International Bartenders Association repertoire as a recent classic with a stimulating character.
