Moka tonic

Step 1

Prepare your equipment

Check the pot’s valve, seal and basket. Match the coffee and water to the pot’s size and fill marks.

Step 2

Load the coffee

Fill the base just below the safety valve and the basket level, without tamping. Keep the rim clean and assemble firmly before heating.

Step 3

Apply gentle heat

Keep the heat low to medium and stay with the pot. Remove it as the coffee finishes flowing or at the first gurgle.

Step 4

Pour the coffee out

Stir the coffee in the upper chamber and pour it out. Let the pot cool completely before opening it.

Step 5

Let the coffee cool

Let the coffee cool in an open cup. To cool it faster, stand the cup in a bowl of cold water, keeping water out of the coffee, and stir occasionally. Continue only once it is cool; never seal hot liquid in a shaker or jar.

Step 6

Build the layers

Put 100 g ice and 150 ml tonic in a glass, then slowly add the coffee.

Step 7

Serve and taste

Serve the finished drink. Taste when it is comfortable to drink.
