Espresso Martini Recipe for National Kahlua Day

National Kahlua Day is February 27th.

We think you should celebrate with a Kahlua cocktail. An Espresso Martini is the perfect classic. The sophistication of a martini and the rich coffee flavor.

Kahlua is what I stock in my home bar though for this recipe you could use any coffee liquor.
