Solo Coffee is fast becoming the go-to cold brew for London’s leading bars, fuelling a new wave of coffee cocktails that go far beyond the espresso martini. Founded by two baristas with a deep love for both coffee and cocktails, Solo was created to solve a simple problem: how to deliver consistently excellent coffee in high-volume, high-pressure bar environments. The answer? A smooth, robust cold brew that’s bar-ready, shelf-stable, and packed with flavour.
Cold brew, by nature, is less acidic and more rounded than espresso, making it an ideal base for cocktails. It brings depth and richness without overpowering other ingredients, and its mellow profile allows spirits and liqueurs to shine. For bartenders, it’s a dream—no need for espresso machines, no waiting, no inconsistency. Just pour, shake, and serve.
At Cocktails in the City’s Coffee Cocktails 2.0 stand, Solo Coffee is leading the charge in reimagining what coffee in cocktails can be. This isn’t just about caffeine kicks—it’s about complexity, creativity, and craft. From velvety cold brew negronis to spiced coffee highballs, the stand showcases how coffee can play a starring role in a wide range of serves.
The line-up of participating venues is as exciting as the drinks themselves. Disrepute brings its signature speakeasy elegance, Archive & Myth offers a story-driven approach to flavour, and Viajante87 delivers bold, Latin-inspired innovation. Together, they’re proving that coffee cocktails can be as diverse and dynamic as the spirits they’re paired with.
Solo Coffee isn’t just a product—it’s a movement. One that’s helping bartenders push boundaries and guests reimagine what a coffee cocktail can be. From brunch to nightcap, it’s coffee, redefined. See you at the bar.
