When you think of a mojito, you probably picture something refreshing, citrusy, and just sweet enough to sip under the sun. But what happens when you introduce coffee into that equation—specifically, a smooth, complex roast like Equator Coffee’s Equator Blend? And then—-just to make things interesting—you bring in Stiggins’ Fancy Pineapple Rum, with its rich tropical notes and unmistakable funk?
You get Café del Sol: a cocktail that’s bright, minty, and effervescent, yet grounded by the depth of espresso-style coffee made with the AeroPress Premium and Flow Control Filter Cap.
Why the AeroPress Premium?
The AeroPress Premium is all about precision and possibility. By combining the standard AeroPress method with the Flow Control Filter Cap, you get a syrupy, crema-like coffee concentrate that mimics espresso—perfect for cocktails. It gives your drink structure, complexity, and just enough bitterness to balance out sweet or fruity ingredients.
In this case, we use Equator Coffee’s Equator Blend, which bursts with notes of cedar, apricot, and nutmeg. These flavors echo beautifully against mint, lime, and the rum’s pineapple richness. We hope you enjoy!
