Barbarac makes you discover all the authenticity of the Tropezian ice cream. 

The desserts are made at night to be tasted a few hours later…This gives these products a fresh and authentic taste.

Vitamin Coffee . The Espresso Martini

THE ESPRESSO MARTINI

Coffee – it gets us through the working week – giving us that all-important wake- up call (after we have blearily hit snooze for the umpteenth time on the alarm clock). It can provide a gentle shove come mid-morning and a welcome boost mid-afternoon. But it’s not just a tool to keep us working, coffee is also part of our down-time and our social calendar. Whether you’re putting your feet up with a Cappuccino or having a natter with good friends over a Latte, making sure you have some time to relax and have fun is as important as making sure you eat your greens or get enough sleep.

Come the weekend it’s time to wave goodbye to the working week and embrace the rest and play element of your life. While regular coffee will bring you satisfaction, it’s a great time to think about pepping up your cup of Joe. Coffee is good on its own but mixed with alcohol it can really deliver a flavoursome punch. So, how can you use coffee to make alcoholic drinks for the long weekend ahead? Allow us to enlighten you with our Espresso Martini recipe that even contains your vitamins in!

Ingredients

40 ml Broken Clock Vodka
20 ml Kahlúa (Coffee Flavoured Liquor)
20 ml Vitamin Coffee Espresso
3 Whole Coffee Beans
Ice Cubes

Method

Fill a shaker with ice cubes.
Add all ingredients.
Shake and strain into a cocktail glass.
Garnish with coffee beans.

Tips

Prepare the espresso coffee beforehand and let it chill. That will help to minimize the dilution, make your drink colder and even tastier!

When straining: Make sure to pour the drink brisk and swift from your shaker. That will help to get all that beautiful foam out and land on top of your drink.

Sit back and enjoy your Espresso Martini with your vitamins in!
