High Fructose Corn Syrup Free Espresso Martini

Few cocktails pull off the balance of bold and elegant quite like this one — deep espresso flavor, a silky texture, and that signature frothy top that makes it look like it came straight from a high-end bar. The secret to avoiding hidden corn syrup here is simple syrup made from scratch, since many store-bought coffee liqueurs and flavored syrups sneak in high fructose corn syrup as a sweetener. By keeping the ingredient list tight — vodka, coffee liqueur, fresh espresso, and your own simple syrup — you stay in full control of what goes into the glass. Shaking the mixture vigorously over ice is what creates that gorgeous foam layer on top, so don't hold back. Double-straining into a properly chilled glass keeps the texture smooth and the presentation clean. Garnished with three coffee beans, it's as stunning to look at as it is to sip.
