VANILIA ESPRESSO MARTINI

WRITTEN BY: SCOTT VAN DORT

Just when you thought an Espresso Martini couldn’t get any more luxurious.

The Vanilia Espresso Martini is an Espresso Martini variation that uses Absolut Vanilia (Vanilla-Flavored Vodka) instead of the original Absolut Vodka. 

Not only is it one of Ricardo ‘Rico’ Dynan’s (Bartender and Absolut Global Brand Ambassador) favorite Espresso Martini variations but one of his personal favorite drinks to make with Absolut Vanilia, period.

“Vanilla, Coffee. What more is there to say? This drink is insanely good,” says Rico. And yes, it’s every bit as smooth and decadent as you imagine.
