As someone who had the absolute pleasure of attending Sabrina Carpenter's Short n' Sweet Tour, I urge you to get your hands on tickets by any means necessary. I will be telling my grandchildren about it in the same way some grandparents talk about attending Woodstock. Another thing I urge you to do? Pair your concert experience with an espresso martini (for obvious reasons). Specifically the Short n' Sweet Espresso Martini, aka the official cocktail of the tour.
This deliciously creamy, perfectly caffeinated beverage can be purchased at just about every stop on the tour (just look for the Absolut x Kahlúa stand), but, great news: you can also make it at home with a few simple ingredients.
Because we love you like Sabrina loves to mistake butterflies for cardiac arrest (IYKYK), we got the exact recipe they serve up at the shows and are sharing it with you here, below, for your pregaming pleasure. Grab that barware kit out of the back of your cabinet, and read on.
Short n’ Sweet Espresso Martini
Ingredients:
- 2 parts Absolut vodka
- 1 part Kahlúa
- 1 part espresso

- Ice cubes
Instructions:
- Fill a shaker with ice cubes.
- Add all ingredients.
- Shake and strain into a cocktail glass.
- Garnish with coffee beans.
I don't know about you, but I'm salivating just reading this recipe. If I were you, I'd whip up a few with friends while you lace up your platform boots and press on your lip-print tattoos ahead of Sab's concert. Or, if you don't have tickets, just make one for an extra-special at-home happy hour while blasting blondie on Spotify. Either way, this sweet sipper will make quite the impression, trust me.
