How to Make Frozen Espresso Martinis at Home (It’s SO Easy!)
Espresso martini enthusiasts, this one's for you. We're sharing an easy FROZEN spin on espresso martinis that you can easily whip up at home. Image: Main Street Meats
At Chattanooga, TN, favorite Main Street Meats, Bar Director Garth Poe created a frozen version of the beloved espresso martini that you can easily whip up at home. This recipe is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser for the summer months. Simply toss all the ingredients into a blender when you’re ready to serve, and voilà! So much easier than you think.
All of the ingredients are readily available at most supermarkets and liquor stores. The turbinado syrup adds an earthy richness, but in a pinch, you could swap it out with regular simple syrup. Make your own with a two-to-one (2:1) water-to-sugar ratio, or pick up a bottle of pre-made syrup for your bar cart! (It’s yummy in coffee, too.)
After you’ve tried the recipe once, you can play with the proportions to achieve your personal ultimate frozen espresso martini. And if you’re entertaining, consider topping your espresso martinis with two or three whole coffee beans, chocolate-covered coffee beans, a dollop of whipped cream, a whisper of shaved chocolate, or hey — all of the above.
Enjoy!
