The Only Drama I Want Tonight Is This Pistachio Espresso Martini
We all know the classic Espresso Martini is that girl—strong, smooth, and a little flirty. But tonight? I’m adding a nutty little twist that’s giving full pistachio princess energy.
Meet your new go-to after-dinner drink: the Pistachio Espresso Martini. She’s creamy, a little sassy, and just bougie enough to feel like you’re at a fancy rooftop bar… even if you’re in pajamas at home. Hey, we can even consider her dessert
This version combines your fave coffee base (cold brew or espresso—your call), a splash of Baileys, whipped cream vodka, and the real MVP: pistachio coffee creamer. You can even get extra fancy with Pistachiocello if you’re feeling that vibe. Dessert and caffeine in one? Say less.


Pistachio Espresso Martini Ingredients:
- 2 oz cold brew or brewed espresso (chilled)
- 1 oz Baileys Irish Cream
- 1 oz pistachio coffee creamer (I use International Delight)
- 1 oz whipped cream vodka (vanilla vodka works too)
- Optional: ½ oz Pistachiocello for extra pistachio power
- Ice for shaking
- Crushed pistachios and espresso beans for garnish (optional but cute)

Directions:
- Fill a cocktail shaker with ice.
- Add cold brew or espresso, Baileys, pistachio creamer, whipped cream vodka, and Pistachiocello (if using).
- Shake it like you mean it—about 15–20 seconds until nice and frothy.
- Strain into a chilled martini glass.
- Garnish with crushed pistachios, espresso beans, or a dusting of cocoa powder if you’re feeling extra.
Sip and savor. She’s smooth, sweet, and a little caffeinated—just like you.

Pro Tips:
