Description
This espresso martini float is my dream cocktail and dessert; it combines my goto espresso martini recipe (plus a little chocolate liqueur) and ice cream for an absolutely out-of-the-world experience.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 ounces bourbon
- 1 shot of freshly brewed espresso (about 1.5 ounces)
- 1/2 ounce coffee liqueur
- 1/2 ounce chocolate liqueur
- 1/2 ounce brown sugar syrup
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 4 scoops peppermint, vanilla, or chocolate ice cream (or your favorite that would also pair well with espresso)
Instructions
- Start by brewing 1 shot of espresso.
- Then Add the 1 ½ ounces of bourbon, the shot of espresso, ½ ounce of coffee liqueur, ½ ounce of chocolate liqueur, ½ ounce of brown sugar syrup, and ½ teaspoon of vanilla.
- Top with ice and shake vigorously.
- Add 3-4 scoops (or as much as you like!) ice cream to a glass big enough to hold the ice cream and martini.
