Ingredients

  • 1 cup coffee grounds (16 tablespoons)
  • 4 cups cold water
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup warm water
  • 2 cups milk preferably whole

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Mix the coffee grounds (1 cup) with the water (4 cups) in a container or pitcher and refrigerate for at least 12 hours, and as long as 48 hours.
  2. Strain the coffee with a fine mesh sieve lined with cheesecloth or coffee filter.
  3. In a small bowl of pyrex measuring cup, mix the honey (1/4 cup) with the warm water (1/4 cup) to make a quick simple syrup. Stir until honey is dissolved.
  4. Pour 1 cup of the cold brew coffee over ice in a glass, then add 2 tablespoons of the honey simple syrup and 1/2 cup of the milk.
  5. Stir and enjoy!

Notes

  • This cold brew coffee is especially strong, since a lot of milk is added to it so it doesn't taste watered down. You can use the cold brew coffee as a concentrate, and if you prefer black iced coffee, just water it down a bit. Or, you can brew it with half the amount of coffee grounds.
  • For a party or to serve at brunch, I recommend brewing and straining the coffee and mixing the honey simple syrup beforehand. You can serve each separately and let guests pour themselves however much coffee they want.
  • The provided nutrition information does not include any added sodium from seasoning to taste, any optional ingredients, and it does not take brands into account. Feel free to calculate it yourself using this calculator or by adding the recipe to Yummly.
