Preparing the perfect coffee for your cocktail:

As coffee is a key ingredient in this cocktail, getting the proportions of coffee and water right will help to achieve the perfect drink! We recommend using 15g ground coffee to 150ml to brew the coffee in the Moka Carmencita or if you’re using a Cafetière brew a coffee concentrate with 40g ground coffee to 100ml. If you’re using an Espresso machine use the double pressurised filter basket and 15g coffee - this should give you 40-45ml of coffee.
