Here are a few of my favourite festive recipes to be used with your ESPRESSOcap coffee system that give your party that little extra boost.

"Gran Aroma" Espresso Martini

Ingredients: 1 oz "gran aroma"espresso, 1 1/2 oz Vodka, 1 1/2 oz Kahlua coffee liqueur,1 oz white creme de cacao.

Directions: Pour ingredients into shaker filled with ice, shake vigorously, and strain into chilled martini glass. It should be somewhat frothy.

"Arabica" Caffè Corretto

Ingredients: 1 oz. brewed "arabica" espresso, 1 oz. "corrected" with a shot of liquor of choice either Grappa, Sambuca, or Brandy. Option 2, you can make this an alcohol free experience by not adding the liquor and by just adding one Novaroma sugar packet of Anice-Sambuca with every espresso.
Directions: Add all the ingredients together or enjoy the shot on the side.

"Decaffeinato" Hot Chocolate Toddy

Then fold in the egg whites. Soak the ladyfingers in the coffee and Masala, and make a layer of half of them. Cover layer of ladyfingers with half the cheese. Repeat layer of ladyfingers and layer of cheese. Mix together about 2 tsp of cocoa with 2 tsp powdered sugar, and sift over the top. Cover and refrigerate.
