Iced Coffee
Making Iced Coffee is in fact Basic Coffee 101. The key is making the perfect coffee for you. What is your perfect cup of coffee? How do you find out? The answer is simple, make as many cups of coffee, and take notes and when you find something that you like keep it, if something is off, skip it. This applies to the bean, to the amount of time you let it sit, the grounds to water ratio. When you find the perfect black coffee, you can add flavors, creamers and sugar or not. Just remember to take notes or simply remember.

​
1) In a large container, mix premium ground coffee with water. Cover and allow to sit at room temperature twelve hours or overnight.
​
2) Line a fine mesh strainer with cheesecloth and set over a pitcher or other container. Pour coffee/water mixture through the strainer, allowing all liquid to run through. Discard grounds.
​
3) Place coffee liquid in the fridge and allow to cool. Use as needed.
​
4) To make iced coffee, pack a glass full of ice cubes. Fill glass 2/3 full with coffee liquid. Add healthy splash of creamer. Add 2-3 tablespoons of plain sugar or sweetener and stir to combine. As always taste and adjust!
