Cocktail history
Pleasant, refreshing and quite strong – this is all about the De Luxe Espresso alcoholic cocktail. If you like dessert drinks, try this sweet coffee cocktail based on De Luxe vodka by Nemiroff. It is best sipped slowly over dessert.
The De Luxe Espresso recipe is Nemiroff’s take on the classic Espresso Martini, where Nemiroff products add strength and depth to the coffee notes. The original cocktail appeared in the 1980s in a London bar in Soho. According to the story, a famous model asked bartender Dick Bradsell for a drink that would wake her up, and he mixed vodka with fresh espresso.
Like many other drinks with coffee liqueur, it is perfect as a digestif, as well as a standalone cocktail for an evening party.
Best pairings for this cocktail
Nemiroff De Luxe Espresso is a perfect end to a meal, as it goes well with sweets. Chocolate is the best match for this drink – you can choose a chocolate truffle or biscotti with chocolate glaze. Also, chocolate mousse or tiramisu will go well with the cocktail. If you like something salty, you can serve a variety of cheeses – from creamy brie to tangy cheddar. Those who like savoury combinations can serve olives, nuts or cured meats with their drink.

FAQ
Usually the espresso isn’t fresh or the cocktail wasn’t shaken hard enough. Freshly brewed espresso and a vigorous shake with plenty of ice give a thick foam.
Let it cool for a minute after brewing. Hot espresso melts the ice and waters the drink down, while old cold coffee won’t foam.
It’s not a good idea: the taste will be flatter and there will be almost no foam. A strong cold brew works better for the De Luxe Espresso recipe if you don’t have an espresso machine.
Yes. Among the De Luxe Espresso ingredients, vanilla syrup is the easiest to swap, but the cocktail will lose its soft vanilla note.
It’s a bar tradition: the three beans stand for health, wealth and happiness.
