Ingredients
Scale
Liquids
- 1 oz (30 ml) vodka
- 1 oz (30 ml) coffee liqueur (e.g., Kahlúa)
- 1 oz (30 ml) fresh espresso (hot or cooled)
- ½ oz (15 ml) simple syrup (adjust sweetness to taste)
Main Flavoring
- 1 ½ tbsp Biscoff cookie butter
Additional
- Ice (enough to fill a shaker)
- Biscoff cookies (for garnish and optional crumble)
Instructions
- Chill the Glass: Fill a martini glass with ice water or place it in the freezer for a few minutes to get it nicely chilled, which helps maintain the cocktail’s cool temperature when served.
- Optional Glass Rim: For an extra special touch, dip the rim of the martini glass into simple syrup and then press it into crushed Biscoff cookies to create a flavorful, crunchy rim.
- Add Ice to Shaker: Fill a cocktail shaker about halfway with ice to ensure the drink chills properly as it’s mixed.
- Combine Ingredients: Pour vodka, coffee liqueur, fresh espresso, Biscoff cookie butter, and simple syrup into the shaker on top of the ice.
- Mix Biscoff Butter: Whisk or stir gently in the shaker to help the Biscoff cookie butter dissolve smoothly into the liquid, avoiding clumps before shaking.
- Shake the Cocktail: Secure the shaker and shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds. This step is important for blending the flavors thoroughly and creating that signature frothy, creamy top.
- Prepare Glass: Remove the ice water from the martini glass and strain the cocktail into it using a fine-mesh strainer to achieve a smooth, velvety finish without any bits of ice or cookie butter lumps.
- Garnish: Place a whole Biscoff cookie on the rim or sprinkle crushed cookies over the drink for visual appeal and an extra burst of cookie flavor.
- Optional Decoration: For added indulgence, drizzle melted Biscoff cookie butter over the top of the martini or add a few coffee beans as a typcial espresso martini garnish.
- Serve and Enjoy: Serve your Biscoff Cookie Butter Espresso Martini chilled to enjoy the rich, creamy, and uniquely spiced cocktail experience.
Notes
- Ensure the espresso is fresh for the best flavor; cooled espresso works well if you prefer your cocktail less warm.
- The simple syrup sweetness can be adjusted to taste or omitted for a less sweet version.
- When whisking the cookie butter in the shaker, you can warm it slightly beforehand to help it dissolve faster if desired.
- Use a fine mesh strainer to prevent any larger cookie butter bits from entering the glass, maintaining a smooth texture.
- For a non-alcoholic version, substitute the vodka and coffee liqueur with chilled coffee or a coffee-flavored syrup and adjust sweetness accordingly.
