The high humidity of the monsoon season often calls for beverages that provide both caffeine and deep hydration. A coconut water Americano brings together the robust bitterness of fresh espresso and the natural sweetness of chilled tender coconut water. Pouring espresso over ice and coconut water creates a beautiful layered coffee drink with a striking contrast of temperatures and flavours. Making it at home allows you to enjoy a cafe quality beverage with zero added sugar or heavy syrups. It is a highly satisfying and refreshing alternative to a standard hot coffee.

Ingredients

 1 double shot of freshly brewed espresso  200ml chilled tender coconut water  Ice cubes  A slice of fresh lime or lemon

Step 1

 Fill a tall glass with plenty of ice cubes to keep the beverage perfectly chilled from start to finish.

Step 2

 Pour the cold tender coconut water over the ice, leaving enough space at the top of the glass for the coffee.

Step 3

Brew a fresh double shot of espresso and pour it slowly over the iced coconut water to create an attractive layered effect.

Step 4

Add a slice of lime or lemon for a slight citrus lift and stir well before drinking.
