Just came up with this - a little hobby of mine I work on over the weekends! Enjoy. FYI, Im not much of a sweet drink person (love my dirty martinis) but this is pretty tasty.
The Caramel Macchiato Martini
2oz. Espresso, chilled (decaf or regular)
6oz. Premium Vodka
.5oz Vanilla Syrup (recipe below)
Starbucks Caramel Syrup, to taste
Drizzle a small amount of caramel syrup on the interior sides of a martini glass, set aside. Fill a martini shaker with ice, then add the espresso, vodka, and vanilla syrup. Shake vigorously, then pour into the glass. If desired, drizzle a small amount of caramel syrup over the top and and a small amount around the rim. Enjoy!
Vanilla Syrup
2 cups granulated white sugar
2 cups hot water
4 tablespoons vanilla
Mix sugar and water in a small pot and bring to a boil. Allow mixture to boil for 5-6 minutes, turn off heat, and then add vanilla. Allow to cool slightly, move to a sealable container, and then cool completely before using.
