Cold Iced Coffee Recipe to MAKE TODAY and have ready for the week

Serious Mealtimes / Daniel Gritzer

The most important thing to know about cold brew is right there in the name: it’s coffee made with cold (or room temperature really) water instead of hot. The process takes longer—most methods require steeping overnight—and the result is a coffee concentrate that tastes less acidic than other iced coffee methods. The concentrate can be stored in the fridge for up to two weeks and diluted with a cold milk alternative like oat milk or iced water to drink. That’s perhaps one of the best things about cold brew: You can make a lot of it at once and enjoy it with almost no effort.

Whether cold brew’s lower acidity is a good thing however is up for debate. In our own blind taste tests most tasters did not prefer cold brew when served black. However when mixed with creamy dairy cold brew’s qualities really shine. That’s not to say you shouldn’t drink your cold brew black but we do recommend experimenting with different brewing methods depending on how you like your iced coffee.
