With an Espresso Martini, the almost impossible decision is to go with Cognac or Grappa. This one benefits from a looong shake to get a lovely foamy head.

Would you go for a ristretto concentrated espresso shot or a weaker lungo espresso? Will the grappa still come through with a concentrated espresso shot?

Grappa has a robust flavour so I'd say, depending on your coffee and roast, that concentrated shot should be fine.

Does it need to be Moscato grappa specifically or can it be a different kind of grappa like Cividina or Euganea here?

Moscato grappa is my own favourite as so aromatic but other grappas will be their own character to this cocktail.
