Ingredients:
- 1 Crazy Cups Caramel Coconut Cream Coffee Pod or 2 tbsp Crazy Cups Caramel Coconut Cream Ground Coffee (both are available in decaf too!)
- 6 oz water (for brewing coffee)
- 1.5 oz vodka
- 1 oz coffee liqueur (e.g., Kahlúa)
- 0.5 oz cream (we prefer canned coconut cream!)
- 1 tsp caramel sauce (optional for added sweetness)
- Simple syrup (for rim coating)
- 2 tbsp unsweetened shredded coconut (for rim)
- Edible gold sprinkles or glitter (optional for garnish)
- Ice cubes
Instructions:
-
Brew the Coffee:
- Brew 6 oz of strong coffee using your Crazy Cups Caramel Coconut Cream Coffee Pod or ground coffee. Set aside 1.5 oz of espresso-strength coffee to cool slightly.
-
Prepare the Rim:
- Dip the rim of a chilled martini glass in simple syrup, then coat with shredded coconut flakes for a snowy, tropical finish.
-
Mix the Cocktail:
- Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Add the cooled coffee, vodka, coffee liqueur, coconut cream, and caramel sauce (if using). Shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds until well-chilled and frothy.
-
Pour and Garnish:
- Strain the martini into the prepared glass. Sprinkle edible gold glitter or sprinkles on top for a festive, sparkling touch.
-
Serve and Enjoy:
- Sip and savor the creamy blend of caramel, coconut, and coffee magic!
Tips & Variations:
- Dairy-Free Twist: Use a splash of oat milk or almond milk instead of coconut cream for a lighter option.
- Extra Indulgence: Drizzle caramel sauce inside the martini glass before pouring for a decadent caramel swirl.
- Mocktail Option: Skip the vodka and coffee liqueur; add a splash of vanilla syrup and serve over ice for a festive non-alcoholic treat.
- Texture Boost: Top with a sprinkle of toasted coconut flakes for added flavor and crunch.
