Caffe Shakerato - Classic vs Chemist

The Caffe Shakerato is a classic summer espresso drink, normally non-alcoholic and featured on James Hoffmann 's wonderful channel. I was craving this on a hot summer afternoon and created a boozy version that's basically a leveled up espresso martini. The chemist version of this drink is a foam monster and it's awesome.
