- 1 tbsp mascarpone
- 150ml double cream
- 1 tsp icing sugar
- 30ml Smirnoff Vanilla Vodka
- 30ml coffee liqueur like Kahlúa
- 30ml Baileys
- 30ml espresso, freshly brewed and cooled
- Cocoa powder, for dusting
1. Chill your glass by placing it in the fridge or freezer while you make the drink.
2. To make the mascarpone cream, whisk the mascarpone ingredients together until whipped using an electric mixer. Set aside.
3. Add the vodka, coffee liqueur and coffee to a cocktail shaker. Top with ice, seal it with a lid or glass and shake vigorously for about 30 seconds.
4. Strain the martini into the glass to remove any ice.
5. Add a dollop of mascarpone cream (roughly one tablespoon) on top and dust with cocoa powder. Serve immediately.
Top tips:
If you don’t have an espresso machine, dissolve one heaped teaspoon of instant coffee in 30ml water.
The Baileys will sweeten this tiramisu martini, but if you like your espresso martinis super sweet, add a teaspoon of sugar to the coffee while hot and stir until it completely dissolves.
You will have additional mascarpone cream. Either make more cocktails or use it with desserts.
