The comparison makes no sense whatsoever
They both mix alcohol(downer) and caffeine(upper)
So do a lot of drinks.
Irish Coffee
Nutty Spaniards
Hell, Coke has caffeine in it. So add like every mixed drink to the list.
But the joke here is also commenting on the vibe of an espresso martini in relation to a vodka redbull. The latter is seen as a bit more of a trashy drink while the former has a fancier vibe. I love an Irish coffee, but the metaphor would change to something like the Irish coffee being a vodka redbull that travelled europe during the winter.
JD and coke has same sorta of vibe as the vodka redbull, but coke has a lot less caffeine.
Not heard of Nutty Spaniards, googled 3 recipes and none had any caffeine mixer I could see. Red wine, sherry, almond mixer and orange bitters.
