• Freshly brewed espresso
• Kahlua
• Vodka
• Coffee grinds or beans, for garnish
• Simple syrup
• Ice
• Jigger
• Cocktail shaker
• Martini or Nick and Nora glasses

To the cocktail shaker, add Kahlua,

and then the simple syrup,

the brewed espresso…

and the vodka.

Add three cubes of ice per martini to the shaker as well.
