The recipe
17.7 g · 35 g out · 60 ml tonic · over ice
- Fill the cortado with ice and pour 60 ml of tonic over it. Ice first, always — tonic poured onto a warm glass goes flat.
- Let the fizz settle, then pour the shot slowly over the back of a spoon so it layers instead of mixing.
- Serve unstirred, with the layers still showing.
- Dust cocoa over a stencil held a finger above the surface.
