There is a great mix of autumn desserts, main dishes, sides and co*cktails to try.
I’ve been wanting to make an espresso martini for a while, so this is the perfect time to try it with my favorite pumpkin flavor.
I’m including a printable recipe card at the end of this post to make it easy to add to your recipe box.
Now, let’s get to this fall co*cktail.
Ingredients
- 1 oz Vodka – I used Tito’s
- 1/2 oz Kahlua – or other coffee liqueur
- 1/2 oz Pumpkin Spice Creamer – I love Coffee Mate
- 1/2 oz Espresso – you can also use store-bought cold brew
Let’s Make a Pumpkin Spice Espresso Martini
One of the things I love about this recipe is you only a few ingredients to make it. Plus, you can brew the espresso the day before if you want to plan ahead for drinks with friends.
Step 1. Add Ice to a Shaker
Start by filling your co*cktail shaker with ice about 3/4 of the way. This will help chill the ingredients for a perfectly blended martini.
Step 2. Add Vodka and Kahlua
Next up, add in 1 oz of your favorite vodka and 1/2 oz of coffee liqueur.
Step 3. Add Espresso and Creamer
Now you want to add 1/2 oz each of your espresso and pumpkin spice creamer.
Shake vigorously for about 30 seconds. You want the martini to be well-blended. This will add to the creaminess of the co*cktail.
Step 4. Pour into a Martini Glass
Slowly pour your blended martini into a martini glass. I went with a stemless glass.
Top with 3 espresso beans and a dash of pumpkin pie spice.
Unfortunately, I didn’t have coffee beans available, but it does make an espresso martini to include the beans.
Did you know there is actually a tradition behind the 3 beans?
When friends or loved ones raise their glasses for a toast while enjoying espresso martinis, they are honoring the three blessings of health, wealth and happiness.
So, you definitely want to include the 3 beans when toasting with friends!
