HAPPY ESPRESSO MARTINI DAY! We couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate this day by sharing an awesome Espresso Martini recipe using Grand Brulot. Grand Brulot is an award-winning, intensely flavoured and rich cognac, produced by blending Ecuadorian Robusta coffee beans with French VSOP Cognac. This is a perfect addition to the indulgent and creamy Espresso Martini, which will certainly wake you up with a kick!
This Espresso Martini has a difficulty rating of 3/10. This is a simple drink to make, however, preparing the espresso shot requires some extra time.
The Espresso Martini has a fairly recent history compared to many other classic cocktails. It was created in the early 1980s by Dick Bradsel and has since skyrocketed in popularity. We served the drink in a coupe glass, and delicately garnished it with three coffee beans sitting on the foam. The vigorous shaking of the cocktail shaker causes the espresso shot to froth up, giving the infamous foam top.
We will also have more cocktails featuring Grand Brulot on the Tipsy with Tyreek blog so keep your eyes peeled! To explore the delicious Grand Brulot and its brand, click here to visit their website.
