Espresso Tonic Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 ounces espresso (or 1/2 cup of strong brewed coffee)
- 1/2 cup tonic water
- 1 lemon or orange wedge (for garnish)
Instructions
- Prepare Your Espresso
Start with a high-quality espresso. Whether you have an espresso machine, portable espresso maker, Moka Pot, or even a French press, ensure your coffee is rich and flavorful.
- Gather Your Tools
Assemble a highball glass, ice cubes, and your preferred tonic water. Fever-Tree is a popular choice for its fresh and bubbly qualities.
- Build Your Espresso Tonic
Fill the glass with ice cubes and pour the tonic water over the ice. Top it off with a chilled double shot of espresso.
- Garnish Creatively
Express the glass with a citrus wedge – lemon or orange – to add a burst of flavor. Feel free to get creative with your garnish choices.
- Sip and Enjoy
Your Espresso Tonic is ready to be savored. Stirring is optional, and you can use a straw for that finishing touch.
