Cold-Brewed Iced Coffee



I had a two-pound bag full of San Francisco Bay French Roast grounded coffee beans. I wanted to get rid of it after drinking the same hot coffee with milk over and over again. After reading this post, http://www.putaringonannie.com/2013/08/cold-brew-iced-coffee.html#more, I knew just how to get rid of the coffee. Yes. Cold brew is my new obsession. It tastes way better, since it is less acidic and more sweet than hot brew (in which the hot water causes a chemical reaction in the process that makes the coffee more bitter). And the steps are really easy to follow:

Ingredients
1 cup grounded coffee beans
2 cups cold water

How to Make
1. In a lid container, pour the 1 cup grounded coffee beans and 2 cups cold water. Stick it in the fridge and let soak overnight.
2. Place a coffee filter over a sieve. Pour the grounded coffee beans + cold water mixture through the sieve into another container.
3. Let drip. (This takes a while, so be patient!)
4. Serve with ice, milk, etc.
