Velvet Aztec Espresso Martini

Description: This sultry, textured martini reinvents the classic espresso martini with deep Mexican influences. The earthy allure of Happyla tequila blends seamlessly with the luscious creaminess of a strongly extracted horchata, while fresh espresso and a hint of spice deliver a bold kick and velvety finish. Perfect for an after-dinner showstopper or a sophisticated evening pick-me-up. Ingredients: - 1.5 oz Happyla Tequila Blanco - 1 oz strongly extracted horchata (homemade or artisanal, with prominent rice and cinnamon notes) - 0.75 oz fresh espresso, cooled - 0.5 oz coffee liqueur (preferably a Mexican-style) - 0.25 oz agave syrup - 1 dash mole bitters - Pinch of ground cinnamon (garnish) - 3 espresso beans (garnish) Glassware: Large coupe glass Method: 1. Combine tequila, horchata, espresso, coffee liqueur, agave syrup, and mole bitters in a cocktail shaker filled with ice. 2. Shake vigorously for 15–20 seconds to chill and create froth. 3. Double strain into a chilled large coupe glass. 4. Garnish with a pinch of ground cinnamon dusted over the foam and float three espresso beans on top. Alcohol Content: ~20% ABV (based on standard measures and dilution during shaking) Sip and experience creamy coffee, subtle spice, and the smooth warmth of agave in an entirely new way.
