Brewing Instructions

  1. 1

    Combine Coffee and Water

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

  2. 2

    Steep the Mixture

    Cover the pitcher or jar and let the coffee steep at room temperature or in the refrigerator for 12 to 24 hours. The longer it steeps, the stronger the flavor.

  3. 3

    Filter the Coffee

    After steeping, strain the coffee through a fine mesh sieve or a coffee filter to separate the grounds from the liquid. Discard the grounds.

  4. 4

    Serve the Cold Brew

    Pour the cold brew concentrate over ice in a glass. You can dilute it with water, milk, or a milk alternative to your desired strength.

  5. 5

    Add Flavorings (Optional)

    If desired, add sweeteners, flavored syrups, or cream to taste. Stir gently and enjoy your refreshing cold brew iced coffee!
