Here we are, at the espresso martini in it's 2021 version glory. Every once in a while, don't we all get the itch to go out and stay out painfully late and do things we know will make us ache for another day or so.
We can still use the espresso martini though, no matter our age. Getting buzzed enough to want to go out that late with a bunch of pent up service industry workers? ALSO YES. Getting a smooth caffeine buzz to keep me awake long enough to join the after 2 a.m. So what did we miss out on, children of the 90s? Frankly, we missed out on something I sure could have used in my going out days. You know how quickly things fall back out of fashion in this fast-paced world. Someone pointed this out, and now it's as official as the McRib - espresso martinis are in. Like the rest of us, I forgot about espresso martinis until they started coming back. Includes: One (750 ml) Bottle of Absolut Vodka, One (750 ml) Bottle of Kahlúa, One Cocktail Shaker, One Cocktail Jigger, One Branded Absolut Ornament, One Custom Cocktail Stencil, & Five Custom Cocktail Garnishes (Garnish Flavors: Vanilla Hazelnut, Chili Coco, Pumpkin Spice, Cookies & Cream, Instant Espresso).Look, I was not of drinking age in the 90s but I do remember the espresso martini on menus! I even vaguely remember them in the early 2000s as I was of the going-to-coffee-shops age and always wanted one, but the whole under 21 thing kept me from them.
Dark and delicious, it is equally enjoyable on the rocks as it is in cocktails like the Kahlúa Cold Brew Martini, among other enticing possibilities. Kahlúa is made from 100% hand-selected arabica coffee beans and the finest sugar cane in the hills of Veracruz, Mexico, where the ingredients are grown side-by-side. Harvested the following Fall, this distinctive grain helps give Absolut its signature taste. The winter wheat is sewn in the Fall and grows throughout the winter under the Swedish snow, developing into a hard grain. The water used in Absolut Vodka comes from a deep well in Sweden, where it is protected from impurities. Absolut Vodka is made primarily with water and winter wheat, and unlike many other vodkas, Absolut does not contain any added sugar. Its smooth and mellow flavor has a distinct character of grain followed by a hint of dried fruit, so you enjoy a rich, full-bodied spirit and the true taste of vodka.Įvery element used to create Absolut Vodka comes from One Source, within a 75 mile radius of Åhus, Sweden.
