The Espresso Martini is a perfect after-dinner drink for Winter Dinner Parties and Celebrations.  We tend to serve heavier meals this time of year so your guests may enjoy continuing conversation with this lighter version of dessert.  You can top it off with whipped cream, and shake with powdered cocoa to create a really decadent treat!

Tip: A perfect cocktail for Oscar parties – the shot of espresso helps keep you up for those late night acceptance speeches.
