Ingredients

    100g golden caster sugar
    For the cocktail
    ice
    100ml vodka
    50ml freshly brewed espresso coffee
    50ml coffee liqueur (we used Kahlua)
    4 coffee beans (optional)

Instructions

    STEP 1
    Start by making the sugar syrup. Put the caster sugar in a small pan over a medium heat and pour in 50ml water. Stir, and bring to the boil.

    STEP 2
    Turn off the heat and allow the mixture to cool. Put 2 martini glasses in the fridge to chill.

    STEP 3
    Once the sugar syrup is cold, pour 1 tbsp into a cocktail shaker along with a handful of ice, the vodka, espresso and coffee liqueur. Shake until the outside of the cocktail shaker feels icy cold.

    STEP 4
    Strain into the chilled glasses. Garnish each one with coffee beans if you like.
