Tips:

  • Use freshly brewed espresso for the best flavor. Cold brew coffee can also be used, but it will result in a less intense flavor.
  • Use a good quality vodka. A smooth, unflavored vodka is best.
  • Use simple syrup instead of sugar to sweeten the cocktail. This will help to dissolve the sugar more easily.
  • Garnish the cocktail with coffee beans or a twist of lemon peel.
  • If you don't have an espresso machine, you can make espresso using a Moka pot or an Aeropress.
  • If you don't have Kahlua, you can use another coffee liqueur, such as Tia Maria or Sheridan's.
  • If you don't have simple syrup, you can make your own by dissolving 1 cup of sugar in 1 cup of boiling water.
