Vodka, coffee liqueur and freshly pulled espresso, shaken hard until a thick tan foam forms. Rich, silky and a little bit wide awake. Vodka 51 Connoisseur Reserve gives the coffee a deep, velvety base.

How to make it

Chill a coupe.

Add all ingredients to a shaker with plenty of ice and shake hard for about 15 seconds.

Double strain into the chilled coupe and let the foam settle. Rest three coffee beans on top.

From the Master Blender

Pull the espresso just before you shake, and use plenty of ice. A hard, fast shake is what builds the foam crown.
