Notes

There are 67mg of caffeine per serving.
Use large ice cubes if possible. They will melt slower than small ones.
Hot or cold espresso can be used. If your espresso is hot, add a bit more ice to the shaker to prevent it from melting the ice cubes and diluting the drink.
To get a thick layer of foam, shake hard for 30 seconds and pour into a glass quickly for the frothiest espresso martini.
Drink the martini right after pouring it. If you absolutely need to store leftovers, pour them into a jar with a tight fitting lid. Leftovers will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for no more than 24 hours.
