MOREHow-To Guide: Making Espresso-Based Cocktails
Ingredients:
- Freshly brewed espresso (1-2 shots per cocktail)
- Spirit of choice (vodka, rum, whiskey, etc.)
- Sweetener (simple syrup, flavored syrups, liqueurs)
- Ice
- Optional flavorings (vanilla, chocolate, spices)
- Fresh milk for frothing
- Garnish (orange or lemon zest, chocolate shavings)
Instructions:
1. Brew Espresso:
- Brew 1-2 shots of strong espresso using your preferred method. Allow it to cool slightly.
2. Choose Your Spirit:
- Select a spirit that complements the flavor of coffee. Vodka, rum, and whiskey are popular choices.
3. Sweeten to Taste:
- Add sweetener to balance the bitterness of the espresso. Start with a small amount and adjust according to your taste.
4. Add Flavorings (Optional):
- Experiment with optional flavorings like vanilla extract, chocolate
syrup, or a dash of spice to enhance the complexity of the cocktail.
5. Shake or Stir:
- Combine the brewed espresso, spirit, sweetener, and flavorings in a
shaker with ice. Shake vigorously or stir well to chill the ingredients.
6. Prepare Milk Foam:
- Froth fresh milk until it forms a rich, creamy foam. The foam adds a luxurious touch to the cocktail.

- Strain the shaken or stirred mixture into a glass filled with ice.
This can be done through a fine-mesh strainer to remove any ice chips.
8. Top with Milk Foam:
- Gently spoon the frothed milk on top of the cocktail. The foam can be
poured over the back of a spoon to create a layered effect.
9. Garnish Creatively:
- Add a finishing touch by garnishing with citrus zest, chocolate shavings, or any other complementary garnish.
10. Serve and Enjoy:
- Your espresso-based cocktail is ready to be enjoyed! Sip slowly and savor the harmonious blend of coffee and spirits.

However, we have embarked on a journey of manually updating the relative strength of cocktails, their flavour profile and in the future aim at providing approximate calories per drink too.
Blue Tick Project:We aim at manually validating and verifying each cocktail in their current context and mark them as valid, where, a blue tick would mean that the recipe has been verified and is 100% accurate while an orange tick would mean the recipe has low confidence.
Where as a grey tick would mean that the recipe has not yet been manually validated or verified recently.
Note: The Cocktail photos used are graphical representations of the glass and colour of a drink, these are generated using information from the recipe and we personally strive at providing real photographs of cocktails and we hope we can replace all representational photos with real photos soon.
