Embrace the chill of winter with the Frosted Peppermint Espresso Martini, a refreshing twist on a classic favorite. This cocktail combines the rich, bold flavors of espresso with a cool peppermint breeze, topped with a wintery snowcap foam for a festive touch. Experience the perfect balance of invigorating coffee and soothing mint, ideal for cozy evenings by the fire. Ingredients: - 1.5 oz vodka - 1 oz freshly brewed espresso, chilled - 0.75 oz Kahlúa or coffee liqueur - 0.5 oz white crème de menthe - 0.25 oz simple syrup - A dash of peppermint extract - Peppermint candy cane, crushed (for rim) - 1 oz heavy cream - A few drops of vanilla extract - A small mint sprig or chocolate-coated espresso beans for garnish Instructions: 1. Wet the rim of a chilled coupe glass or martini glass with water and dip it into the crushed peppermint candy cane to coat the rim with a festive flair. 2. In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, combine vodka, espresso, Kahlúa, white crème de menthe, simple syrup, and a dash of peppermint extract. 3. Shake vigorously until the mixture is well-chilled. 4. Strain into the prepared glass. 5. In a separate small bowl, whip heavy cream with a few drops of vanilla extract until slightly thickened but still pourable. 6. Carefully float the vanilla cream mixture over the back of a spoon to create a snowy layer atop the cocktail. 7. Garnish with a mint sprig or a couple of chocolate-coated espresso beans for an extra touch of elegance. Serve in a coupe glass or martini glass.
