Listen upu coffee nerds, because this Chocolate Coconut Coffee Soda recipe is for you.
If you’re as into coffee as I am, you likely do an informal coffee tour when you’re in a coffee-centric city like Portland. It’s the hometown of Stumptown and Coava so they take their coffee — be it iced, espresso, or pour-over — as seriously as the French take baguettes.
On my latest trip, it was blazing hot so everyone was selling a version of iced coffee, with lots of appearances by the increasingly popular carbonated iced coffees aka coffee tonics aka coffee spritzers.
My favorite was at Barista coffee shop where they made a bubbly mocktail by mixing tonic, coffee, and balsamic vinegar. It was totally crazy, as in crazy good, but it’s most definitely an acquired taste.
As a sort of gateway guzzler, I created this Coconut Chocolate Coffee Soda Recipe that resembles an old-fashioned East Coast-style Egg Cream, except there’s coconut milk and cold brew so it’s decidedly different.
