Ingredients

  • 1 ounce of cardamom simple syrup see link in post
  • 4 ounces of strong cold coffee
  • 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of fresh lemon juice yes, fresh is critical
  • 3 to 4 ounces of soda water or seltzer to top

Instructions

  • Fill a 12- or 16-ounce glass about half-full of ice.  Add the cardamom simple syrup, cold coffee, and lemon juice.  Stir to combine.
  • Top with fizzy water, stir, and add more ice or simple syrup as needed.
  • <b>Alternate oleato version:</b> Add the ice, coffee, simple syrup, lemon juice, and olive oil to a mason jar or cocktail shaker.  Shake vigorously for 20-30 seconds, and strain into a highball glass filled with ice.  Top with soda water. 

Notes

  • You can use either the Aeropress brewed coffee or espress, either works; personally I slightly prefer the taste from the Aeropress
