There was a nice foam layer at the top, which allowed the small coffee beans to pop out. Once I added the orange peel twist, I couldn’t help but be proud of myself. This drink looked legit.
The vodka flavor wasn’t as overpowering as the first drink, but it was still strong. If you’re not a big fan, I would equalize the vodka ratio to the Kahlúa.
What surprised me most about Garten’s espresso martini was how strong it is. I’m not a lightweight, but I was buzzing after a few sips!
If you’re looking for a drink that will wake you up instead of knock you over, you might want to cut back on the alcohol.
But if you’re hoping for a night out, Garten’s espresso martini will certainly get you off to a good start.
