Servings: 1 drink
Ingredients
- 1 shot espresso
- ¾ cup tonic water
- 1 slice orange or lemon
- Ice cubes
Instructions
- Fill your lowball tumbler with ice cubes and a single slice of lemon or orange.
- Pour tonic water over the ice until the glass is 3/4 full.
- Pull a single shot of espresso into a separate glass or cup.
- Slowly pour the espresso over the iced tonic water and serve immediately.
Notes
- Lemon and orange both work well in this drink so choose which ever citrus fruit you prefer or have on hand.
- Pouring the tonic water first allows it to chill and settle before adding your espresso.
- Gently pour the espresso on top - pour too quick and it may fizz up and over the top of your glass.
- Experiment with different coffee beans - fruity Ethiopian or Kenyan coffee beans work well with this style of coffee drink.
