Butter Tart Espresso Martini

If you have ever struggled between an extra helping of dessert or a cocktail to wrap up a wonderful evening, this Butter Tart Martini recipe is for you.

Elevating the traditional espresso martini with whisky, especially Butter Tart Whisky Cream, is probably the most Canadian thing that could ever happen to Italian coffee. For best results, use real espresso coffee (not instant) and put the coffee in the freezer for a few minutes after brewing to chill it first.

And don’t forget to add three coffee beans on top. Traditionally, the three coffee beans that float atop the Italian liqueurs are called La Mosca (the fly) and are meant to represent health, wealth, and happiness.

The Butter Tart Espresso Martini is for any occasion when you need a little more Canadian dolce in your vita.
