{Thirsty Thursday: Bailey’s Espresso Martini}

I am so excited for St. Patrick’s Day! Although DC does not really celebrate DC on as big of a scale as I am used to, I still enjoy the holiday and you can rest assured I’ll be wearing green (outfit inspiration posts to come!).

Guinness will be the popular favorite on St. Patty’s Day but I’ll opt for another drink. Beer just does not taste good to me and stout is no exception. Bailey’s is a different story…

For those of you with a coffee fix, this is a perfect cocktail for you:

Ingredients 

2 ounces Bailey’s Irish Cream

1/4 ounce vodka

1 shot, cold espresso

Directions 

Combine ingredients in a shaker.

Shake and pour into a martini glass.

Garnish with a cherry if desired.

The rich, caramel color of this Bailey’s cocktail reminds me of my favorite spring outerwear…

My {trench coat is from Banana Republic} and I cannot say enough nice things about this coat. My trench is 2 years old and still going strong! It’s perfect for those April showers just around the corner : )
