It's getting HOT here in Texas, so I needed to figure out how to make iced coffee without spending $4 per cup at Starbucks. I found this recipe and tried it out.It's delicious and easy! I am going to by some flavored syrup so I can have more options too:-)Ingredients:
1 cup ground coffee
1 (1 quart mason jar)
strainer
water
paper towels
Place ground coffee in mason jar, fill with cold water. Stir well until all grounds are wet. Cover and let sit overnight. In the morning place strainer over large bowl and add 2 paper towels to the strainer. Slowly strain concentrate coffee into bowl and then into another jar or whatever you are going to store it in.
To make the iced coffee: The recipe called for equal parts concentrate/milk.....but that is pretty strong. Play with it until you find the flavor you like. I put a little less than half concentrate - the rest milk - filled with iced - added 2 tablespoons of sugar and it's perfect for me:-)
You can keep this concentrate in the fridge for up to 3 weeks:-)
