Daydrinking with Lavazza E-Tonic | Caroline on Crack
How are the celebs gonna stay awake through a long day of working the Golden Globes? At the Golden Globes Awards hospitality lounge, the pop-up Lavazza cafe will be serving "Lavazza E-Tonic" made with gin, tonic, half a shot of espresso and some ginger to brighten it up. It's basically a coffee gin and tonic, which makes it the perfect cocktail for brunch and day drinking. Super easy to make, but you must have fresh espresso handy.
Fun fact: The espresso tonic is the second most searched coffee cocktail recipe on the web, right behind the espresso martini.
Thanks to a demo at Eataly by Lavazza coffee expert Francesco Viarizzo, here's how you can make it at home!
