Ingredients
- 8 ounces ground coffee
- 4 quarts cold water
- Sweeteners as desired sweetened condensed milk, half-and-half, syrups, etc.
Instructions
- Place the coffee grounds in a large food-safe container and add the cold water. Mix with a large spoon, then cover and allow to sit overnight at room temperature.
- Strain the mixture into a clean container through a fine-mesh sieve that has been lined with two layers of cheesecloth or coffee filters. Discard the coffee grounds. Chill mixture until ready to use.
- To make the iced coffee, fill a glass with ice and fill it two-thirds full of the chilled coffee concentrate. Sweeten as desired. (I made mine with 2 tablespoons sweetened condensed milk and an additional splash of half-and-half.)
Notes

- Equipment: Large food-safe container / Fine-mesh sieve / Cheesecloth
- Coffee Strength: See the post above for details on how to adjust measurements for stronger or weaker coffee.
- Flavoring Options: Simple syrups, dairy and non-dairy milk, sweetened condensed milk, sugar, homemade salted caramel sauce, whipped cream.
- Storage: The best way to store your iced coffee is separately in parts. Keep the coffee stored in a food-safe container in the refrigerator. Simply add ice and any additional mix-ins when you are ready to enjoy!
- Shelf-Life: Stored separately you can keep the cold-brewed coffee for up to 1 week in the refrigerator. If you've mixed your coffee with ice and other flavors it will keep up to 8-12 hours in the refrigerator, less if it's at room temperature.
