The Espresso Martini: A Global Trend
In recent years, the espresso martini has experienced a real craze, reinventing itself according to trends and seasons, to appear on the menus of the trendiest bars and restaurants here and elsewhere. This cocktail, which combines the intensity of espresso with the sweetness of the liqueur, has become synonymous with sophistication and pleasure.
Our Quebec Interpretation
Inspired by this global trend, we decided to create our own interpretation of this modern classic, adding a homegrown twist. Our version, the Cold Brew Coffee Martini, celebrates the richness and depth of our cold brew coffee, a flavorful alternative that offers a velvety texture and nuanced flavors, distinguishing itself from traditional espresso. By adding our local maple syrup, we coat this cocktail with comforting sweetness.
A Trend that Crosses Borders
This espresso martini trend, which has its roots in the excitement of urban nights, has crossed continents to captivate coffee and cocktail lovers around the world. Here in Quebec, it goes perfectly with our love for quality coffee and our penchant for local products, like maple syrup.
The Perfect Opportunity to Enjoy
Perfect for an evening with friends, a refined aperitif or even to end a meal on an elegant note, our Cold Brew Coffee Martini is a celebration of taste and innovation. Through this creation, we invite you to rediscover the pleasure of a classic cocktail, reinterpreted with ingredients that are dear to us, for a completely unique experience.
