I have such a fun festive cocktail to discuss today! ‘Tis the season!

Just like everyone else, I’ve been very into the espresso martini trend as of late. The thing is? I’ve been drinking them for YEAAAARRS — much longer than they’ve been trendy.

Over the years, Dan and I have perfected our own at-home version, and I’ve even shared a few fun twists on the classic on this site over the years.

The next rendition: Peppermint Mocha Espresso Martinis!

It’s like your favorite coffee shop drink meets boozy martini. Truly, there might not be anything better.

While I definitely do not imbibe like I used to (I’m a boring “one glass of wine every now and then” gal these days), when I am feeling festive or fancy, an espresso martini always fits the bill.

This version is really easy – no simple syrup required! And if you’re a cocktail connoisseur, you very well may have all the ingredients on hand already.

Ingredients You Need to Make These Peppermint Mocha Espresso Martinis:

Ice
Brewed espresso (very strong coffee or even cold brew will work)
Vodka
Kahlua liqueur (or any coffee liqueur you prefer)
Godiva chocolate liqueur (or any chocolate liqueur you prefer)
Peppermint schnapps
Chocolate syrup and candy canes — optional garnishes

How to Make These Peppermint Mocha Espresso Martinis:

Start with a shaker full of ice.
Add the espresso, vodka, and liqueurs and shake vigorously to mix and chill all the ingredients.
Rim your martini glasses by dipping them in a little chocolate syrup and crushed candy canes (this is totally optional but very fun).
Strain the martini into the glasses and enjoy immediately while cold.
