Yes. We said it. Espresso can get you tipsy. This job can only be done when it is served cold and combined with vodka, coffee liqueur, and sugar syrup. This legendary cocktail we are talking about is known as the iconic Espresso Martini. If you're about to fall asleep in the city that never sleeps, the Espresso Martini is a perfect drink to give you that quick boost of energy.
There’s no need for you to go on a quest to find this cocktail. Thanks to Bec Hull from Medium, she has compiled the best spots to visit in Manhattan that offer a tasty Espresso Martini that we are all looking for.
