About
This one was created in 2021 by Dzu Nguyen at Horsefeather (San Francisco). This espresso martini is assertive, but I love it. Surprisingly, absinthe and coffee make for a nice combo, and mint brings freshness. Citrus peel oils over the surface of espresso martinis is underrated and should be done more often!Cheers y’all!
