Prep Time 3 minutes
Additional Time 12 hours
Total Time 12 hours 3 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups coarsely ground French roast or espresso
  • 6 cups filtered water
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. In a large container, stir together coffee and water.
  2. Cover and brew for 12-24 hours, to taste.
  3. Filter the coffee concentrate through a strainer lined with a coffee filter into a clean container, and refrigerate.
  4. Covered and stored in the refrigerator, this cold brewed coffee should last 3-4 weeks.

To make a perfect glass of homemade iced coffee:

  1. Fill a tall glass with ice (or to keep your iced coffee stronger, use coffee ice cubes!) and pour in cold brewed coffee to about 3/4 full.
  2. Stir in your favorite sweetener. I like to use this double strength simple syrup for cold beverages. Drizzling in sweetened condensed milk is another decadent option.
  3. Add a splash of half and half and enjoy!
