Lyre's Espresso Martini
Our esteemed patriarch Lord Lyre esq. was present at the Groucho Club London when the first ever Espresso Martini was served. As legend has it, a rather famous model asked Dick Bradsell, the godfather of modern cocktails for a drink that, “Will wake me up, then f*ck me up.” One out of two will be more than adequate.
