Espresso Martini – An After Dark Inspiration

Rich, aromatic, and full of quiet intensity — this cocktail is equal parts evening energy and late-night intimacy.

The Espresso Martini is no stranger to the spotlight — but made with The Potager, it becomes something different. Something deeper. The lively citrus notes meet the rich bitterness of espresso and the warmth of coffee liqueur, creating a cocktail that lingers like a late-night story you almost didn’t tell.

It’s not just a pick-me-up. It’s a moment. A shift in mood. A garden with the lights turned low.

This is the drink you reach for when the night is far from over, and the best conversations are still ahead.
