1pt Mocha Martini Recipe
1pt Mocha Martini
As the legend goes, the Espresso Martini was invented in 1980s London to ‘wake you up, and @#$%& you up’ in equal measure. While we always counsel moderation, there is no denying the galvanizing effect of this eye-opening combination of vodka, coffee, and - in this case - subtle, velvety chocolate. Take that, Early-Night-In!
STEP 1 - Easy All-Natural Infusion
Infuse Your Spirit Combine a 1pt Chocolate Infusion Blend Packet with 375ml of vodka in any lidded vessel and infuse for 5-6 hours, strain, and reserve liquid for cocktails. (No need to refrigerate - infused spirits can be stored indefinitely at room temperature)
1pt Chocolate Infusion Blend Ingredients Vanilla Rooibos, Cacao Shells, Marigold Petals - no sugar, gluten, dairy, nuts, additives, or preservatives
STEP 2 - Mix Your Drink
Ingredient | Cocktail (1) | Batch (6+) |
---|---|---|
1pt Chocolate-infused Vodka | 2.0 oz | 375ml |
Cold Brew Coffee | 2.0 oz | 13 oz |
Kahlua | 0.5 oz | 3 oz |
Simple Syrup | 0.5 oz | 3 oz |
Mixing Instructions:
Combine all ingredients in a shaker with ice and shake until chilled. Strain into a martini glass. For batching, do not shake. Instead, combine all ingredients in a pitcher with ice (adding 4 oz of water to mimic the dilution you usually get from shaking) and serve as normal.
Garnish:
Garnish with a few coffee beans or a sprinkle of cocoa powder for a rich finishing touch.
STEP 3 - Enjoy!
For an Added Twist:
Float a pinch of sea salt in addition to the coffee beans for a subtle contrast that enhances the sweetness and depth of the mocha flavors.
