Tinto de Verano

Cold-brew coffee meets red wine, sherry, lemon and tonic.

Named after a memoir by British poet Laurie Lee about his travels through Spain, this variation on the Tinto de Verano brings two Spanish gems together with cold-brew, lemon and tonic for a refreshing highball that’s great year-round.

  • ¼ oz. fresh lemon juice
  • Tonic water, to top
  • Tools:shaker, strainer
  • Glass:highball
  • Garnish:orange slice

Add the first 5 ingredients to a shaker and shake with ice for 5 seconds. Double strain into an ice-filled glass filled and top with tonic. Garnish.
