Baileys Espresso Martini

A shaken vodka, Irish cream and espresso drink served up in a martini glass.

Go to the recipe ↓

In this version from The Bar, Baileys Original Irish Cream is the largest pour, with Ketel One Vodka and espresso measured equally beside it. The shopping list is short: the recipe calls for no syrup and no coffee liqueur, so you need only the three liquids and some coffee beans. The espresso is a fixed measure, so make it before you shake. The recipe doesn't specify whether it should be hot or cooled.
