New Year, New Coffee Cocktails — Two Festive Recipes to Ring in the Year

New Year's Eve brings along a wave of celebration and never-ending get-togethers. As families and friends gather to feast and drink, it's the perfect opportunity to flaunt your inner barista skills and earn some extra limelight at the dinner table.

At Coffeeza, we created two coffee cocktails with our holiday special blends — grab your cocktail shakers and let's get started!


Recipe 1: Gingerbread Espresso Martini

Our Gingerbread coffee capsules have a deliciously sweet and spicy flavour — notes of ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, molasses, and chocolate — that serves brilliantly in a martini. Combined with vodka and coffee liqueur, this is guaranteed to be a crowd-pleaser at your New Year's party.

Ingredients

  • 30ml Gingerbread espresso (brewed with Coffeeza Gingerbread capsule)
  • 60ml vodka
  • 20ml coffee liqueur
  • 10ml simple syrup
  • ½ glass ice cubes
  • Caramel syrup + cookie crumbs (for garnish)
  • Cinnamon (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Brew the Gingerbread espresso in the Coffeeza Finero Next and let it cool
  2. In a shaker, combine espresso, vodka, coffee liqueur, simple syrup, and ice — shake well
  3. Dip the rim of a martini glass in caramel syrup, then roll in cookie crumbs
  4. Pour the mixture from the shaker into the glass
  5. Garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon and serve!

Recipe 2: Boozy Peppermint Mocha Affogato

A boozy twist on the classic Italian affogato — sweet, minty, cold, and hot all at once. It's a cocktail, a beverage, and a dessert in one. Made with Coffeeza Peppermint Mocha capsules — medium-dark roasted Arabica with a delicious medley of sweet, minty, and chocolate notes. The ice cream melts beautifully once poured over, and every molten spoonful is simply irresistible.

Ingredients

  • 30ml Peppermint Mocha espresso (brewed with Coffeeza Peppermint Mocha capsule)
  • 60ml vodka
  • 20ml coffee liqueur
  • 10ml simple syrup
  • 1–2 scoops vanilla ice cream
  • Chocolate syrup + crushed peppermint candy (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Brew the Peppermint Mocha espresso in the Coffeeza Finero Next and let it cool
  2. In a shaker, combine espresso, vodka, coffee liqueur, simple syrup, and ice — shake well
  3. Dip the rim of a martini glass in chocolate syrup, then roll in crushed peppermint candy
  4. Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream into the glass
  5. Pour the shaker mixture over the ice cream
  6. Garnish with crushed candy and serve immediately
