Method
Cold Brew Base
Combine and steep
In a large jar or pitcher, add 1 cup coarsely ground coffee and 4 cups cold filtered water. Stir gently to ensure all grounds are wet.
Steep time
Cover the jar and refrigerate or keep at room temperature to steep for 12 to 18 hours (longer yields stronger concentrate).
Strain
After steeping, strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve lined with cheesecloth or a coffee filter into a clean container. Press gently to extract liquid; discard grounds. You should have roughly 3 to 3.5 cups of cold brew concentrate.
Protein Coffee Mix
Dissolve protein
Place 2 scoops vanilla protein powder in a small bowl or measuring cup. Add 3 tablespoons hot (not boiling) water and whisk briskly until a smooth paste forms with no lumps. This prevents clumping when mixed into cold liquid.
Combine milk and sweetener
In a separate container, combine 1 cup unsweetened almond milk, 1 tablespoon liquid sweetener, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract. Stir until sweetener is dissolved.
Finish & Serve
Assemble the iced coffee
Fill two tall glasses with 1/2 cup ice each (about 1 cup total). Into each glass pour 3/4 cup cold brew concentrate and 1/2 cup of the protein-milk mixture (adjust ratio to taste). Stir gently to combine. If concentrate is very strong, top with a splash of water or extra milk to adjust strength.
