The Caribbean Espresso Rum is an exotic version of the classic Espresso Martini, replacing vodka with aged or spiced rum. This cocktail delivers a bold fusion of woody rum notes, the bitterness of coffee, and the smoothness of sugar. Perfect as a digestif or evening cocktail, it charms with its aromatic depth and elegance.

• 5 cl aged or spiced rum
• 4 cl freshly brewed espresso coffee
• 2 cl coffee liqueur (e.g., Kahlúa)
• 1 cl cane sugar syrup (adjust to taste)
• Garnish: coffee beans, orange zest (optional)

1. Pour the rum, chilled espresso, coffee liqueur, and sugar syrup into a shaker.
2. Add ice and shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds.
3. Strain into a chilled cocktail glass.
4. Garnish with coffee beans or a twist of orange zest for a subtle aromatic touch.

- Shake longer for a creamier, foamier top.
- Spiced rum adds delicious vanilla and warm spice notes.
- Pair with a piece of dark chocolate for an elegant digestif moment.
