Pumpkin Spice Espresso Martini

The fall favorite gets a caffeinated upgrade — vodka, coffee liqueur, real pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, and maple syrup shaken with fresh espresso. Creamy, spiced, and dangerously drinkable. Perfect as a dessert cocktail or after-dinner pick-me-up.

Prep5 minutes

Serves1 cocktail

Ingredients

  • 2 oz vodka
  • 1 oz coffee liqueur (Kahlúa or Mr. Black)
  • 1 oz fresh espresso (or strong cold brew)
  • 1 tbsp pumpkin puree (not pie filling)
  • 1/2 oz maple syrup
  • 1/4 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • Pinch of salt
  • Whipped cream and cinnamon for garnish

Instructions

  1. 1. Brew espresso and let cool slightly (hot espresso melts ice too fast).
  2. 2. Add all ingredients to a shaker with ice. Shake vigorously for 20 seconds until very cold and frothy.
  3. 3. Double-strain into a chilled martini or coupe glass.
  4. 4. Top with whipped cream and a dusting of cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice.
