Cold Brew Ingredients

Method

Brewing the Cold Brew

  1. 1

    Combine Coffee and Water

    In a large jar or pitcher, add the coarse coffee grounds and cold water. Stir gently to ensure that all the coffee grounds are saturated.

  2. 2

    Steep the Mixture

    Cover the jar or pitcher with a lid or plastic wrap and let it steep at room temperature or in the refrigerator for about 12-24 hours. The longer it steeps, the stronger the flavor will be.

  3. 3

    Strain the Coffee

    After steeping, strain the coffee concentrate through a fine mesh strainer or a coffee filter into a clean container. This will remove the coffee grounds, leaving you with a smooth cold brew concentrate.

Serving the Cold Brew

  1. 4

    Prepare the Glass

    Fill a glass with ice cubes. You can use a 12oz glass to serve the cold brew.

  2. 5

    Mix the Cold Brew

    Pour 1:1 ratio of the cold brew concentrate and cold water or milk (or adjust to your taste), and stir gently to combine.

  3. 6

    Add Sweetener (Optional)

    If desired, add sweetener to taste and stir until fully dissolved.

  4. 7

    Serve and Enjoy

    Enjoy your refreshing cold brew coffee!
