Instructions
- Put your glass in the fridge. Put your martini glass in the freezer to make it nice and cold.
- Put things in your shaker. Put some ice in your cocktail shaker. Add Irish cream, vodka, and coffee liqueur to the mix.

Tips and Variations
- Put your martini glass in the freezer for 10 minutes before you make your drink. A cold glass makes all the difference!
- For drama, drizzle some chocolate syrup into your glass before adding the martini. It tastes great and looks great.
- Shake it like you mean it: Shake the ingredients in the cocktail shaker until they are very cold and creamy. You want to hear that ice shaking!
- Use good vodka: The quality of your vodka is important because there aren’t many other ingredients.
- Have fun with the kids (without alcohol!): For a mocktail they can enjoy, mix milk, a splash of chocolate syrup, and a little bit of coffee-flavored creamer with ice.
- You should serve this drink right away, but you can measure out the Baileys, vodka, and coffee liqueur into a small container and put it in the fridge until you’re ready to shake it and serve it.
- No coffee liqueur? Change it to a teaspoon of instant espresso powder mixed with water.
- If you’re vegan, use Baileys Almande (which doesn’t have any dairy) and plant-based chocolate syrup.
- Add a splash of cream or milk to make it even sweeter.
- Change the garnish: For a seasonal twist, use crushed candy canes, cinnamon, or even caramel drizzle.
- Let’s be honest: there probably won’t be any leftovers. If you have extra cocktail mix, though, you may keep it in the fridge for up to 24 hours in an airtight container. Before serving, shake well.
