Ingredients

  • 1 cup whole coffee beans freshly ground, fine ground
  • 6 cups cold water
  • ice for serving
  • ¾ cup creamer optional

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a large pitcher, combine coffee grounds with cold water. Mix well until the coffee grounds are fully submersed. They will rise to the top after mixing.
  2. Place the pitcher inside the refrigerator and allow it to chill for at least 24 hours. Chill longer for richer taste.
  3. When ready to serve, stir it again. Most of the coffee grounds should be absorbed into the water. If any other grounds are visible, pour through a strainer before serving.
  4. Pour cold brew over ice and serve with your choice of creamer, if desired.

Notes

  • Use Starbucks coffee beans or coffee beans of your choice.
  • The coloring will get slightly darker as your cold brew chills.
  • Use a coffee grinder for best results when grinding your coffee. You want this very finely ground. You can purchase a coffee grinder or find one in the coffee aisle at your local grocery store.
