Espresso Martini

The Espresso Martini is a relatively young cocktail, dating back to the early 1980s. When a woman approached a London bar and asked for "something that wakes me up and then fucks me up," the bartender grabbed some coffee beans, made an espresso, added some vodka and something sweet. And so the Espresso Martini was born.
