Coconut Espresso Martini!

Hello, foodies! As the chef at Cookinglife, I'm happy to help you create this delicious cocktail with a tropical twist that will elevate your tasting experience. Enjoy the creamy coconut flavor combined with the intense espresso for an elegant and refreshing drink. With our slogan "Live with taste," you'll turn every evening into a party – shake it up!

Ingredients (for 1 cocktail):

50 ml strong espresso (freshly brewed and chilled)
50 ml vodka
30 ml coconut cream (or coconut milk for a lighter version)
15 ml simple syrup (or honey for a natural sweetness)
A handful of ice cubes
1 tablespoon toasted coconut flakes (for garnish)

Instructions:

Chill your cocktail glass in the freezer for at least 10 minutes beforehand so your cocktail tastes extra smooth and refreshing from the first sip.
Prepare your espresso and let it cool completely; this will create the perfect balance in your drink.
Place the 50ml cooled espresso, 50ml vodka, 30ml coconut cream, and 15ml simple syrup in a cocktail shaker.
Add a handful of ice cubes to the shaker for the right amount of cold and creaminess. Close the shaker and shake vigorously for 10-15 seconds to create a creamy head – this is the key to a professional look!
Strain the cocktail into your chilled glass to remove any ice residue.
Garnish with toasted coconut flakes for a crunchy texture and a tropical accent.

Tips and a unique twist from Cookinglife:

Just like at Cookinglife, where we believe in "Cooking for Everyone," you can customize this cocktail to your preferences. For a sugar-free version, replace the syrup with a sugar substitute like stevia or a few drops of liquid sweetener to retain the sweetness without the added calories—perfect for a healthy lifestyle! This cocktail is naturally gluten-free, but if you're feeling adventurous, try a touch of vanilla extract for added depth. Cheers to a life of flavor, and share your creations with us on Cookinglife!

Campari Americano Spritz

Geïnspireerd door de smaken van Milaan en Turijn, ontstond deze cocktail rond 1860 in Caffé Campari onder de naam Milano-Torino, verwijzend naar Campari uit Milaan en zoete vermout uit Turijn. Tegen het eind van de 19e eeuw, toen Amerikaanse toeristen het drankje omarmden, werd de naam veranderd – nog vóór de periode van de Amerikaanse drooglegging.
