Espresso Martini
This cocktail builds on the long-standing tradition of “café calva”; the historically popular way of consuming Calvados. In the 1900s, French workers often added a drop of Calvados to their morning coffee, for additional warmth and vigor. Today, we can emulate this tradition with a Calvados espresso martini, the perfect mix of old and new.
