Espresso With Instant Coffee?

Q: I am wanting to make an Espresso, yet I only have instant coffee at home. Is it a case of simply using the instant coffee with a little water in a small, shot-sized mug?

No, that's not the case, you need Espresso coffee and a special Espresso coffee maker - otherwise all you'll make is very strong, undrinkable instant coffee - not Espresso.

An Espresso pot, along with Espresso itself, is what you'll need... and don't forget the fresh lemon. All you'll be making if you do it your way is very hot, strong instant coffee... it's just not the same.
