Coffee Ingredients

Method

Brewing Process

  1. 1

    Combine Coffee and Water

    In a large pitcher or jar, add the 1 cup of coarse ground coffee to 4 cups of cold water.

  2. 2

    Stir to Mix

    Stir the mixture gently to ensure all of the coffee grounds are saturated with water.

  3. 3

    Steep

    Cover the pitcher or jar and let it steep in the refrigerator for 12 to 24 hours. The longer it steeps, the stronger the brew will be.

  4. 4

    Strain the Coffee

    After steeping, strain the coffee through a fine mesh strainer or a coffee filter into another container to remove the coffee grounds.

Serving Suggestions

  1. 5

    Serve Cold

  2. 6

    Add Flavorings

    Add any desired flavorings such as milk, cream, sweetener, or flavor extracts to taste.
