Method

  1. 1

    Chill a coupe glass.

  2. 2

    Pull a fresh shot of espresso and let it cool briefly.

  3. 3

    Add vodka, coffee liqueur, espresso and sugar syrup to a shaker with plenty of ice.

  4. 4

    Shake hard for 15 seconds until a thick foam builds.

  5. 5

    Double strain into the chilled coupe and garnish with three coffee beans.

Bartender's note

Shake harder and longer than you think — the crema comes from aeration, and the espresso must be freshly pulled.
