Review: Apres Hours

Apres Hours is a line of ready to drink canned espresso martinis that come in three flavors, Classic, Vanilla, and Salted Caramel.  Launched by Alexis Smith and Nicole Craven they worked with Levecke Corporation in Mira Loma California to turn their obsession with espresso martinis into a canned cocktail.  Apres Hours translates to “after hours”.  Alexis and Nicole have always preferred espresso martinis made with tequila instead of the vodka, so it was an easy decision for them to craft their gluten free and dairy free espressos from a agave wine base.  Agave wine is produced from the fermentation of agave sap.  Natural flavors, 40mg of caffeine from Columbian coffee and caramel color are blended with the agave wine base before canning at 10% alcohol.  As a point of reference for those who have not tried an Espresso Martini a traditional one is made with 2 oz. vodka, 1 oz. coffee liqueur,  1 oz. espresso, and .5 oz. simple syrup.  Apres Hours is sold in single flavor four packs and it is available to ship to 39 US states.  Order yours at drinkapreshours.com  Read more »
