ESPRESSO MARTINI: THE BADA BEAN BADA BOOZE NIGHTCAP EVERYONE’S TALKING ABOUT
Espresso Martini: The Bada Bean Bada Booze Nightcap Everyone’s Talking About
Some drinks spark conversation. Others bring a crowd. The Espresso Martini at Bada Bean Bada Booze does both. It’s the drink that perfectly captures the dual spirit of our concept—a little bit buzzy, a little bit boozy. Whether you’re capping off a date night, kicking off a girls’ night out, or just need a reason to linger at the bar a little longer, our take on this classic cocktail is smooth, balanced, and downright addictive.
Why It Works
The Bada Bean Espresso Martini is built for those who appreciate a proper pour. It’s not overly sweet, not too bitter, and never watered down. We use freshly pulled espresso—never syrup, never concentrate—shaken hard to give you that iconic frothy crema on top. From the first sip to the final drop, it’s got enough depth to satisfy both coffee purists and cocktail connoisseurs.
Inside the Glass
- Freshly Brewed Espresso: Pulled hot to order for maximum crema, aroma, and bite.
- Premium Vodka: Clean, neutral, and smooth enough to let the coffee shine.
- House Vanilla: Adds a layer of toasted sweetness without overpowering the espresso.
- Demerara Syrup: Rounds out the finish with a subtle caramel warmth.
Shaken with ice and served up, our Espresso Martini is crowned with a creamy top and finished with three espresso beans—a nod to tradition symbolizing health, wealth, and happiness.

Pair It Like a Pro
Pair your Espresso Martini with rich, decadent bites. We recommend our seasonal cheesecake bar, chocolate-dipped shortbread, or a savory cheese board for contrast.
