📝 Preparation Steps
1
For the martini: Pour the espresso into an ice cube tray and freeze until solid, about ⏱️ 6 hours.
2
For the simple syrup: In a small saucepan, whisk together the sugar and 1 cup water over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is completely dissolved (the syrup should be clear, not cloudy), 2 to ⏱️ 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and transfer to a heatproof container with a lid. Let cool completely, about ⏱️ 1 hour at room temperature or ⏱️ 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
3
For the coffee whipped cream: In a large bowl, combine the heavy cream, coffee liqueur, sugar, cocoa powder, and salt. Whip with a whisk until soft peaks form, 1 to ⏱️ 2 minutes. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
4
When ready to serve, combine the frozen espresso cubes, vanilla vodka, coffee liqueur, and 2 ounces (¼ cup) of the simple syrup in a blender. (Reserve the remaining simple syrup for another use.) Blend at high speed until smooth, ⏱️ 30 seconds to ⏱️ 1 minute. Pour into 2 or 3 chilled coup glasses, dollop with the coffee whipped cream, and garnish with espresso beans.
