  • 2 oz Vodka

  • 1 oz Espresso (freshly brewed)

  • 0.75 oz Coffee Liqueur (Kahlúa or similar)

  • 0.25 oz Simple Syrup

 Shake hard with ice until frothy, strain into chilled Coupe or Martini Glass. Garnish with 3 Coffee Beans.

FUN FACT:

Created in the 1980s by London bartender Dick Bradsell when a guest asked for a drink that would 'wake her up and mess her up at the same time.'

Severely overrated in my opinion (I like stirring the pot, what can I say?)

 
 
Lemon Drop

Excellent as a shooter, slightly underwhelming as a cocktail.
