Maria’s Espresso Tonic (With a Twist)
Ingredients
Ice
150ml tonic water
1 tbsp orange juice
Method
- First, brew your double shot of espresso and leave it to cool. You can speed up the cooling time by placing it in the fridge.
- Fill your glass at least half full with ice. Add the tonic water, leaving enough space for the espresso and orange juice (use less tonic water if necessary). Add the espresso and top with orange juice. Stir gently and enjoy.
BK Tips
- Feel free to swap out the orange juice for another citrus juice, like lemon, lime, or even grapefruit
- For a layered effect, hold a spoon upside down over the glass and slowly pour the espresso onto it; this will make the tonic water and espresso look separate. Just make sure to mix it before you drink – otherwise, you won’t taste the elements together!
