Notes:
The original cocktail was created by Charity Johnston, Beverage Director at Toca Madera, West Hollywood, CA who says,
“I wanted to make an Espresso Martini-style cocktail but I always like to make something a little different. I wanted this cocktail to taste as if you’d just had a cold brew coffee from your favorite shop and opted for the Mr. Black Cold Brew Coffee Liqueur. It really is like drinking cold brew, and I love that it’s caffeinated.”
