Espresso Martini Delight for Valentine’s Day: Featuring Belvedere Vodka & Mr. Black

Looking to impress your sweetheart with a romantic cocktail on Valentine’s Day? At On The Fly Tapsters, we specialize in unique, mobile bar experiences that elevate any celebration—including date night. Our mobile bartenders are excited to spotlight a timeless favorite: the Espresso Martini. Originally conceived in the 1980s by legendary London bartender Dick Bradsell, the Espresso Martini has since become a go-to indulgence for coffee and cocktail lovers alike. For this Valentine’s edition, we’re using Belvedere Vodka and Mr. Black Espresso Liqueur, both of which bring a smooth, rich character to your glass.

Why Belvedere and Mr. Black?

  • Belvedere Vodka: Renowned for its premium taste and Polish heritage, Belvedere adds a velvety finish that pairs perfectly with coffee-infused elements.

  • Mr. Black Espresso Liqueur: Crafted with top-tier Arabica beans, this liqueur delivers a balanced coffee flavor without overwhelming sweetness.

  • 2 oz Belvedere Vodka

  • 1 oz Mr. Black Espresso Liqueur

  • 1 oz freshly brewed espresso (cooled slightly)

  • (Optional) 0.5 oz simple syrup if you prefer a sweeter profile
