30 ml 1 fl oz vodka
15 ml 1/2 fl oz coffee liqueur
15 ml 1/2 fl oz Irish cream liqueur
Ice cubes
Equipment
Cocktail shaker

Instructions
- Begin by brewing a fresh shot of espresso. Allow it to cool slightly while you prepare the other ingredients.
- Fill your cocktail shaker with ice cubes. Pour in the vodka, coffee liqueur, Irish cream liqueur, and the slightly cooled espresso.
- Secure the lid on the cocktail shaker and shake the mixture vigorously for about 15-20 seconds. This will chill the drink and create a frothy texture.
- Strain the mixture into a coupe glass filled with ice cubes. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- For an extra burst of flavor, consider adding a dash of cinnamon or nutmeg on top of the drink before serving. This not only enhances the taste but also adds a lovely aromatic element.
