Dillon’s White Cranberry Cosmopolitan

On the flip side of that flavour wheel comes Dillon’s new Cold Brew Espresso Martini. This velvety cocktail is a must for coffee lovers and is a blend of Dillon’s vodka, coffee liqueur and cold brew coffee. To create frothy cocktail foam for the drink, simply pour the Cold Brew Espresso Martini into a pre-chilled cocktail shaker over a scoop of ice, then shake until icy cold. Strain martini gently into a chilled Nick and Nora glass, allowing the cocktail foam to rise.
