Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix Coffee and Water

    In a large jar or pitcher, combine 1 cup of coarsely ground coffee with 4 cups of cold water.

  2. 2

    Stir the Mixture

    Gently stir the mixture with a spoon to ensure all the coffee grounds are saturated with water.

  3. 3

    Steep the Coffee

    Cover the jar or pitcher and let the mixture steep at room temperature or in the refrigerator for 12 to 24 hours, depending on how strong you want the flavor.

Straining and Serving

  1. 4

    Strain the Coffee

    After steeping, use a fine-mesh strainer or a coffee filter to strain the coffee concentrate into a clean jar or pitcher, discarding the coffee grounds.

  2. 5

    Serve the Cold Brew

    To serve, fill a glass with ice and pour the cold brew concentrate over the ice. You can dilute it with water, milk, or a milk alternative to your desired strength.

  3. 6

    Garnish (Optional)

    Add sweeteners or flavorings such as simple syrup, vanilla extract, or a sprinkle of cinnamon if desired.
