Hello, folks! How are you doing? I hope you all had a great weekend and are ready to embrace a new week.

Also, I am excited to share another dulce de leche recipe – this luscious cocktail!

Creamy and Decadent Martini

Two years ago, I already shared a Dulce de Leche Martini; it was quite similar but not the same. In my humble opinion, this recipe is more complex.

To make it, you only need a few simple ingredients.

  • Brandy is the foundation of this cocktail. You can choose your favourite brand. If you don’t like brandy, other spirits would work. Think of whiskey, rum, and vodka.
  • Coffee liqueur works as a balancing agent, helping to balance the flavours of brandy, as well as adding sweetness. I used Kahlua, but any other similar liqueurs will work.
  • Dulce de leche adds the sweetness and a hint of caramel. Use good-quality dulce de leche, ideally produced in South America.
  • Table or coffee cream (18%) adds richness and smoothness. If 18% cream is not available for you, you can use half-and-half (10-12%) or cream with a slightly higher fat content, i.e., 20-22%
  • Espresso powder – optional, for added coffee flavour.

Ingredients

  • 2 oz. (60 ml.) brandy

  • 1 oz. (30 ml.) coffee liqueur such as Kahlua

  • 1 oz. (30 ml.) cream 18%

  • 2-3 tbsp. (20-30 g.) dulce de leche

  • a pinch of espresso powder – optional

  • a pinch of cinnamon – optional, for garnish

  • more dulce de leche – optional, for rim

Directions

  • In a shaker combine the brandy, coffee liqueur, dulce de leche, cream, and espresso powder (if using) and shake vigorously for 40-60 seconds; it takes more time to incorporate the dulce de leche. Try and adjust the taste, as desired by adding more dulce de leche, cream, or spirits.
  • If you would like to make a dulce de leche rim, spread 1-2 tablespoons on a flat plate and dip a cocktail glass into it. If possibly, use thick dulce de leche for best result.
  • If desired, sprinkle with some cinnamon. Enjoy right away!

Notes

  • Since we do not use ice cubes, you can chill dulce de leche, cream, and spirits first.
