Instructions for Espresso Martini Mocktail
- Dip the rim of your martini glass into syrup and then cocoa powder. Set aside.
- Into a cocktail shaker add brown sugar (or simple syrup), espresso, heavy cream, vanilla extract, salt, and ice.
- Shake vigorously for about a minute or so. Pour into a martini glass and top with a few coffee beans.
- If you’re looking for the cocktail version, replace the heavy whipping cream with 2 ounces vodka, 1/2 ounce coffee liqueur (usually Kahlúa), and reduce the brown sugar or simple syrup to 1/2 ounce.
