The Experience

keyboard_arrow_up

The espresso martini is having a moment, and no wonder: With its rich taste and deep color, coffee is a natural ingredient for irresistible cocktails. In this live virtual experience with expert mixologist Tamu Curtis, you’ll use espresso to craft three luscious mixed drinks, learn how to infuse spirits with coffee flavors, and explore the cultural inspirations behind these caffeinated creations.

  • Before class, you’ll prepare two flavored infusions using your Espresso Martini Gift Set (see "Comes with the class," below): the classic, with vodka, and the carda-martini, with reposado tequila.
  • In class, you'll make the third infusion together: the cocoa, with reposado tequila or bourbon (your choice!).
  • Next, Tamu will guide you in the crafting of three cocktails:
      • The classic espresso martini, made with vodka.
      • A beautifully layered espresso tequila mule infused with heady spices.
      • Finally, a cocoa espresso old-fashioned enriched by the classic pairing of coffee and chocolate, with a twist of orange to complement the flavor of both.
  • You’ll discover cultural influences behind each cocktail, such as Latin cuisine's traditional pairing of coffee and cinnamon and the European custom of adding a hint of citrus to espresso.
  • Learn how to tailor drinks to your personal taste by experimenting with different infusion blends and understanding how the ingredients contribute to cocktail complexity.
Class length: 75 minutes.
Comes with the class: Our Flavored Espresso Martini Gift Set has all the ingredients and tools you need to raise the bar on coffee cocktails, including four flavored blends made with premium ingredients like cane sugar, cardamom pods, and—of course—espresso beans.

About

After moving from Los Angeles to Charlotte, North Carolina, Tamu Curtis immersed herself in the growing city's culinary and bar culture. Her career in the hospitality industry gave her the chance to meet bartenders who inspired her to host mixology events and classes, and eventually to open her own cocktail goods and lifestyle shop. Having taught more than 500 in-person and online classes, Tamu understands how mixology can seem mystifying to many beginners. "My goal is to make it more approachable to the at-home enthusiast," she says. "I enjoy seeing people have the same epiphany I had when it came to making cocktails."

For this class, you'll need the included Flavored Espresso Martini Set, a knife, glassware for serving, a jigger or measuring spoons, a barspoon (or chopstick), a shaker or mason jar, a Hawthorne strainer (or fine mesh strainer), ice, 2 additional bottles or mason jars, and the ingredients listed in the link below
