Default Martini for cigar and coffee lovers

My new favorite after dinner martini with a smoke.

1.5 oz of Van Gough Double Espresso Vodka
1.5 oz of Kalua
1.5 oz Bailey's Cream
0.5 oz of strong espresso coffee

Shake that all up really well with ice, strain and enjoy.

I swear it tastes like Tiramissu on steroids.
Enjoy!

I like a little Tia Maria instead of the Bailey's. A Little less creamy

You can call this whatever you want - -
EXCEPT a Martini.
No gin, No vermouth, NO Martini.

Seems today anything that can be put in a martini glass is called a martini.
Nowadays, rum and tequila is also used.

I discovered this drink in The Library, in Portsmouth, NH, from their martini list.
Bartender was kind enough to give me the amounts of each ingredient.

Default Re: Martini for cigar and coffee lovers

Sounds similar to a russian qualude. Albeit a qualude isn't a martini but still.
1.5 oz vodka
.5 Kahula
.5 baileys
.5 frangelico

I'm sure it's good. I agree with the martini thing...although....tequila martinis

Intriguing, but about as 'Martini' as a pair of Levi's is an Econoline van.
