Midnight Cortado
AI-generatedMediumCoupe
Like an espresso martini's brooding older sibling who reads philosophy and wears leather.
Ingredients
- ◆1 1/2 oz vodka
- ◆1 oz espresso
- ◆1/2 oz vanilla syrup
- ◆1 oz whole milk
- ◆2 dashes angostura bitters
Method
- 11. Pull a fresh espresso shot and allow it to cool for 60 seconds — not fully cold, just off the boil.
- 22. Combine vodka, espresso, vanilla syrup, whole milk, and bitters in a shaker.
- 33. Add ice and shake vigorously for 15 seconds to build a thick foam.
- 44. Double-strain through a fine mesh strainer into a chilled coupe.
- 55. Let the foam settle naturally for 20 seconds before serving.
PRO TIP
Use whole milk straight from the fridge — the cold fat emulsifies with the hot espresso to create a dramatically silkier foam than cream alone.
Garnish — three floating coffee beans
