Have our caffeine-fueled Gen Z dreams finally come true? Emma Chamberlain’s ‘Chamberlain Coffee’ and Kendall Jenner’s ‘818 Tequila’ have come together to collab on a twist of our favourite cocky-t - an espresso martini!
The duo are launching a cocktail kit complete with Emma’s limited-edition Candied Pecan Cold Brew Sachets to be paired with the flavours of Kendall’s 818 Tequila Reposado.

Sharing the news on TikTok - where else? - an announcement video showed Emma googling where the origins of espresso martinis came from.
“The espresso martini is said to have been invented in the 1980’s when a fashion model famously asked the bartender for a cocktail that would, quote, ‘wake me up and f**k me up’,” Emma read.
Cue Kendall Jenner, playing the part of her fashion model self.
While not the EXACT origins, the gals did a good job of re-writing history to suit their agenda.
Ending the video, Kendall claims our fave cocky-t “tastes better with tequila”.
And THAT right there is what has fans torn. Tequila in an espresso martini seems criminal.
“NO NO NO I WAS ABOUT TO BUY UNTIL IT WAS TEQUILA,” one fan wrote.
“Espresso and tequila sounds vile,” said another.
While a third passionately insisted: “It doesn’t taste better with tequila, do NOT listen to her.”
Though there are others who are absolutely FROTHING it.
“Now THIS is a collab,” wrote a keen fan.
Another said: “WHERE CAN I GET ONE??? I need this NOW 😫”
“This collab is everything,” added a third.
I’m still not convinced… maybe we need to get a kit and test it out for ourselves to bring you the final verdict.
