A Gift For the Grown Ups!

And Let's Not Forget The Grown Ups! Here’s a fun and indulgent twist perfect for Easter entertaining:


Espresso Martini in an Easter Egg ?☕?

Decadent. Delicious. A little bit cheeky.

This Easter, shake things up (literally) with a crowd-pleasing Espresso Martini… served inside a hollow chocolate egg. It’s a showstopper dessert and cocktail in one — the perfect adult treat.


? You’ll Need:

  • 1 large hollow chocolate Easter egg (Koko Black’s chocolate eggs work beautifully)

  • 30ml vodka

  • 30ml coffee liqueur (like Kahlúa)

  • 30ml fresh espresso (or strong cold brew)

  • Ice

  • Optional garnish: chocolate shavings, coffee beans, or a mini chocolate bunny


?‍? How to Make It:

  1. Prep the egg:
    Carefully slice off the top of the Easter egg using a warm knife (dip the knife in hot water and wipe dry for a clean cut). Set the egg upright in a small glass or egg cup for stability.

  2. Shake it up:
    In a cocktail shaker, add vodka, coffee liqueur, espresso, and a generous handful of ice. Shake vigorously for 15–20 seconds — you want that signature espresso martini froth.

  3. Pour and garnish:
    Gently pour the cocktail into the chocolate egg. Top with a dusting of chocolate shavings or a couple of coffee beans. Feeling extra? Perch a tiny chocolate bunny on the edge.

  4. Sip and enjoy!
    Drink it straight from the egg or serve with a small straw or spoon. When you're done — eat the cup!


Pro Tip:
Chill your chocolate egg in the fridge for 15–20 minutes before serving to help it stay firm once the warm espresso hits it.

Happy Easter!
