The Caffeinated Goose

I’ve tried to make an espresso martini a couple of times but didn’t think it was a great cocktail. One of my friends served me one of theirs and it was terrific. It was the Grey Goose vodka that made all the difference. Sure, the vodka is pricy, but the coffee is worth it!

• 5oz Grey Goose Vodka
• 1 oz single-origin espresso
• 3⁄4 oz premium coffee liqueur
• Pinch of salt

It’s easy to make. Mix the ingredients into a cocktail shaker with ice. Give it a good workout and strain it into a martini glass.

You’ll notice that I said to use a single origin coffee. The Grey Goose vodka really lets the coffee do the work. The martini will have a wonderful taste if you use quality beans such as our Supreme Blend. Oh, and float one of the beans in the martini just to give it that upscale look.
