"I have not seen one person who likes espresso and orange juice not like them together," says TikTok user @bundaddy, who recently shared a video of herself making this concoction with her followers.
"You think that you won’t [like it] — you will."And turns out, she is not the only one who has jumped on the espresso orange juice bandwagon.@bundaddy stitch this and tag me. please. it is my FAVORITE THING. #fyp #foryou #foryoupage #CorollaCrossStep #coffee ♬ original sound - bundaddy
However, the truth is the drink is not technically new – food magazine Bon Apetit actually wrote about the trend a couple of years ago – giving the refreshing tipple the rather catchy name "Spritzy Americano." And – lucky for us – they shared a recipe, making it a lot easier to recreate at home: 5 oz. of seltzer water 2 oz. of espresso 2 oz. of fresh orange juice. "This lineup is flexible, but being within ½ oz. of those measurements will give you the right balance—just enough sweetness from the orange juice, and a body that feels neither thin nor sludgy. The texture of the Spritzy Americano is smooth and lightly carbonated. If you’re the type of person who needs a sweet coffee beverage, a splash of simple syrup is acceptable."@eli_bang orange espresso tonic ? #espresso #coffeee #orangejuice #findyourcore #coffeetiktok ♬ paravi das cover of cloud 9 by beach bunny - paravi ???✨
