Espresso Tonic
Espresso poured over tonic and ice — bitter, citric and startlingly clean.
Tonic water and ice in a tall glass with a shot poured slowly over the top, left unstirred so it layers.

That is 63 mg in a 8 oz (240 ml) over ice serving — a concentration of 26.3 mg per 100 ml. The scale above ranks whole servings, and servings differ in size, so a larger drink can sit further right while being weaker cup for cup.
