The Speckled Whore

Well while channel surfing this week we saw a drink we had to try.
The Coffee Martini! Well off we dashed to the kitchen. (Dashing in heels is not easy to do either!)

Coffee Martini

Ingredients:
  • 7 oz grain vodka
  • 1/2 oz Kahlua
  • 1/2 oz espresso coffee
  • 4 coffee beans, for garnish
  • crushed ice
PREPARATION:
Shake vodka with crushed ice for 30 seconds in a cocktail shaker. Add Kahlua and espresso and give a few more shakes to combine. Let stand for a minute, to fully chill through. Strain into 2 chilled martini glasses, adding 2 coffee beans to each glass.

Well, that was nice....but still not up the standards we divas require. So it was time for some experimentation. We started looking at what we had and what we wanted and came up with our newest concoction.

The Speckled Whore

Ingredients:
  • 1 oz vanilla vodka
  • 2 oz Cream da'Cocoa liqueur
  • 3 oz coconut coffee creamer (liquid)
  • grated chocolate
  • sugar (we used red colored sugar to spice it up)
  • crushed ice
PREPARATION:
Place all items in a blender. Blast away. Pour into glasses and enjoy!

I like coffee and martinis, but the combination just doesn't sound good to me.

Coconut coffee creamer is really good, I use it a lot. I need to quit actually - its one of the things that kills my diets :)

You're right, the name does sound bad lol, but the drinks do sound pretty good! Dropping in and saying hi from The Life Of A Coast Guard Wife!
