Description
The Cappuccino Mojito is an innovative and fascinating fusion of two beloved drinks. It takes the refreshing mint-lime base of the classic Mojito and combines it with the deep, rich bitterness of cold brew coffee. The drink is topped with a lightly sweetened cream float, reminiscent of the milk foam on a cappuccino. This drink is a perfect example of the "functional ingredients" trend, offering a complex flavor experience that is both invigorating and creamy.
Preparation
- Add rum, cold brew coffee, lime juice, and mint syrup to a cocktail shaker filled with ice.
- Shake vigorously until the shaker is ice-cold.
- Strain the contents into a highball glass filled with ice cubes.
- Gently "float" the lightly sweetened cream over the back of a spoon onto the surface of the drink to create a layer.
- Dust with a little coffee powder and garnish with a fresh mint leaf.
