Brew fresh espresso and let it cool slightly.

Add Baileys, espresso, and coffee liqueur to the shaker.
Shake vigorously until the mixture is well chilled and foamy.
Strain into a chilled martini glass.

Notes

Make it sweeter by adding more coffee liqueur.

Swap Baileys for almond or oat-based cream liqueur for a dairy-free version.

Use decaf espresso if you want the flavor without caffeine.

Add a splash of chocolate syrup for extra richness.

Shake hard with plenty of ice for a foamy top.
