An espresso tonic with character, bright acidity, and an unexpected twist. This is the Espresso Tonic Pink — our way of breaking the rules of classic coffee using Etiopía Espresso DFRNT, a coffee designed to create, not just to drink.
Why Etiopía Espresso DFRNT?
Because it is a coffee with floral and fruity notes, bright acidity, and medium body. Perfect to balance with the sweetness of the pink tonic and the ice. This espresso doesn't hide: it leads the drink with personality and leaves a signature in every sip.
🧊 Ingredients (for 1 glass):
-
☕️ 30 ml of Etiopía Espresso DFRNT
-
🍓 120 ml of Schweppes Pink
-
🧊 6–8 large ice cubes
-
(Optional) Lemon slice or grapefruit twist
🥄 Instructions:
-
Fill a tall glass (highball) with ice. This cocktail needs to be very cold.
-
Add 120 ml of Schweppes Pink over the ice. Do it slowly to avoid breaking the bubbles.
-
Extract a 30 ml espresso using Etiopía Espresso DFRNT.
-
Pour the espresso slowly over the tonic. Use a spoon to control the pour if you want to achieve that layered visual effect.
-
Don't mix. Serve it like this and let the experience evolve with each sip.
💡 DFRNT Tip:
This drink works mid-morning, as an aperitif or even as a dessert substitute. If you want to take it to the next level, pair it with a ice cube infused with citrus or hibiscus flower.
