Pull your espresso and let it cool completely.
While waiting for your coffee to cool - in a shaker cup put ice, simple syrup, vodka and coffee liqueur.
Once coffee is cooled, add it to the shaker.
Put the top on the shaker and give it a hard shake, this is what creates the nice foam.
Quickly after shaking, strain into a martini glass.
