The coffee sunrise post earlier reminded me of one of my summer favorites (I just suck at taking pretty pictures but I think you'll get the idea):
- a strong coffee (this one is 125ml from an aeropress but a double shot of espresso/lungo also works very well)
- about 3-4 medium sized ice cubes (enough to still have ice after pouring the hot coffee)
- ~120ml orange juice (adjust to taste and/or the size of your cup)
- 10-20ml of nice spicy ginger juice (if the bottle says "don't drink pure", you got the right stuff)
- pour the coffee slowly onto the ice cubes
- Wait a bit so it gets nicely chilled.
I like slowly sipping about half of the top layer (it's basically an iced coffee at that point) before stirring and enjoying the final mix
Dunno if there is a name for that recipe, I just combined two stolen ingredient ideas (I saw a youtube video about espresso+orange juice once and a local café had an extremely tasty cold-drip based drink that included ginger)
I'm glad I inspired you, and you have inspired me to (attempt at least) make your creation.
Thank you.
Hehe, don't thank me yet. The general consensus seem to be that it's an abomination from the deepest circles of hell ;)
Don't threaten me with a good time
