The Best Party Starter in One Bottle!

There's nothing like a quick shot of an espresso martini to get the party going! This is especially true if you've already put the kids to bed and have hours to go still. This is a drink I made for a recent friendsgiving party Jennie and I went to. Have fun with this one and don't forget to hop on the email list at https://thecocktaildad.com

// Batched Espresso Martini
1/2 cup (1/4 pint) Fresh Espresso
1/2 cup (1/4 pint) V0dka
1/2 cup (1/4 pint) Coffee Liqueur
1/4 cup (1/8 pint) Rich Demarara Syrup (or 1/2 cup regular simple syrup)
1/2 cup (1/4 pint) Filtered water

Whisk all ingredients in a 4 cup liquid measuring cup or other large vessel. Pour into sealable bottle. Leave lots of air to shake drink before pouring to get that frothy look. Chill in fridge for 8+ hours or freezer for 2-4 hours before the party. Serve in small cups straight as shots to get things going!
