Crisp, bold, and beautifully layered – the Espresso Tonic is where coffee meets sparkle. The intense bitterness of espresso pairs perfectly with the effervescence of tonic water, creating a drink that’s both refreshing and sophisticated. Ideal for coffee lovers who want something cool, modern, and lightly bitter-sweet.

  • Total Time: 3 minutes
  • Yield: 1 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 Shot Fresh Espresso (about 30 ml)
  • 120 ml Tonic Water (chilled)
  • 1 tsp Simple Syrup (optional, for sweetness)
  • Ice Cubes

Instructions

  1. Fill a tall glass with ice cubes to the top.
  2. Pour in the chilled tonic water slowly, then add simple syrup if you prefer a touch of sweetness.
  3. Gently pour the freshly brewed espresso over the back of a spoon so it floats above the tonic – creating a beautiful layered effect.
  4. Let it rest for 10-15 seconds before sipping; the flavors merge gradually as you drink.
  5. Optional Garnish: Twist an orange peel over the top to release oils and aroma.
  6. Optional: Add a few drops of vanilla extract or tonic syrup for depth.
