Healthy Recipes Ingredients Healthy Coffee Recipes Frozen Peppermint Espresso Martini 4.5 (2) 1 Review This peppermint espresso martini is the perfect cocktail to whip up when you want something festive for the holidays. If the mixture seems thick, let it sit in the blender for about 5 minutes before serving. If you don't have an espresso maker, you can make this drink with strong brewed coffee.

Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
