Brew your espresso if you have not already and put in the refrigerator to chill. It should be at least room temperature, ideally cold, before making the drink. You can also use cold brew coffee.
Put the espresso, vodka, and coffee liqueur in a cocktail shaker. Fill with ice and shake vigorously for at least 30 seconds until the shaker is very cold.
Immediately pour into the martini glass. For optimal coffee foam on top, pour quickly (not slowly).
Place three coffee beans on top for garnish and serve immediately.
Notes
One ounce is two tablespoons if you wish to measure this way instead.Chilling the espresso can be done in advance. The 3 minutes is how long it takes once the espresso is chilled. For a fast chilling, place in a freezer.
