Pandan Cold Brew Coffee
Description
This recipe starts by creating a pandan simple syrup or blending pandan leaves to extract their flavor, which is combined with medium-coarse ground coffee and cold water in a jar. The mixture is refrigerated overnight for slow extraction, similar to standard cold brew methods, allowing coffee and pandan flavors to meld gently.
After straining out grounds and pandan residue, the coffee is served cold, enhanced with pandan syrup for sweetness and layered flavors. Ice and optional milk can be added to balance the boldness and add creaminess.
The pandan adds a subtle fragrant herbal note that sets this cold brew apart, making it a distinct beverage for those looking for a cool, refreshing coffee with a flavor twist. Preparation mostly involves overnight soaking and simple assembly before serving.
