Perfectly Chilled Iced Coffee Delight
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup ground coffee
- 2 cups cold water
- Ice cubes, as needed
- 1 cup milk (whole, skim, or alternative of choice)
Instructions
1. Prepare Coffee Base:
- Place 1/2 cup of ground coffee in a large pitcher or container.
- Pour 2 cups of cold water over the coffee grounds, ensuring they are fully submerged.
- Stir gently to combine the water and coffee grounds evenly.
2. Steep:
- Cover the container and let it steep in the refrigerator for at least 12 hours or overnight for optimal flavor extraction.
3. Strain:
- After steeping, use a fine-mesh sieve or coffee filter to strain the coffee into a clean pitcher, discarding the soaked coffee grounds.
- This process results in a smooth, concentrated cold brew coffee.
4. Serve:
- Fill serving glasses with ice cubes to your preference.
- Pour the cold brew coffee into the ice-filled glasses, leaving some space for milk.
- Top with milk to taste, whether you prefer a stronger coffee taste with a splash of milk or a lighter version with more milk.
5. Enjoy:
- Stir gently before sipping to combine the flavors.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the refreshing taste of iced coffee.
