Using the AeroPress Flow Control Filter Cap, add 2 paper filters and attach to AeroPress chamber.
Add coffee, and then add hot water.
Stir 10 times then allow to brew for 45 seconds.
Plunge into glass or carafe.
To a separate glass, add ice and tonic water, leaving enough room for the coffee.
Using the back of a spoon, float the coffee on top of the tonic water by slowly pouring coffee on the back of the spoon into the glass.
Squeeze a wedge of the lime into the glass, garnish with slice of lime.
Stir, and enjoy!
