Horchata de Café Martini

Description: This is an elevated, Latin-inspired twist on the classic espresso martini. Happyla tequila provides an earthy, subtly smoky base, while a richly extracted horchata infusion weaves in luxurious, sweet creaminess and nuanced spice. Fresh espresso brings bold energy that’s harmonized with a hint of coffee liqueur. The result is a sophisticated cocktail offering velvety texture, layered depth, and a perfectly balanced, gently sweet finish—a true showstopper for lovers of dessert-style drinks with an agave soul. Ingredients: - 1.5 oz Happyla tequila - 1.0 oz freshly brewed espresso (hot, strong) - 1.0 oz strongly extracted horchata (homemade or premium) - 0.5 oz coffee liqueur (such as Mr. Black) - 0.25 oz simple syrup (optional, to taste) - Pinch of ground cinnamon (plus extra for garnish) - 2 coffee beans (for garnish) Instructions: 1. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. 2. Add the Happyla tequila, fresh espresso, extracted horchata, coffee liqueur, simple syrup, and a pinch of ground cinnamon. 3. Shake vigorously for 20 seconds to chill well and achieve a silky texture. 4. Double strain into a chilled coupe glass. 5. Garnish with two coffee beans and a light dusting of ground cinnamon across the foam. Glassware: Chilled coupe glass Alcohol Content: Approximately 20% ABV Pro tip: For the horchata, use a home-steeped version made with rice, almonds, cinnamon, and condensed milk, then strain well and reduce slightly to intensify the flavor for this cocktail.
