Cold brew options

I have a pretty good method for making cold brew coffee, so I didn't really need this can of Grady's Cold Brew, but the can totally sold me.

You can also get the concentrate in a bottles or sign up for a coffee club to keep a steady stream of caffiene shipped to your home.

Look at these instruction illustrations on the can! So good.

Speaking of liquid cold brew concentrate in a bottle I found this Muddy Waters Cold Brew at Wegmans. It is made right here in Rochester! It's pretty good too. It's a nice option with the #shoplocal bonus.

I am curious if they are affiliated with the Muddy Waters Coffee House that used to be in the South Wedge, but I haven't figured that out yet.

They are on Facebook and Twitter.

Cold brewed coffee & Sparky

It was so warm yesterday it seemed time to start making cold brewed coffee for summer iced coffee.

Of course it was sixty degrees today but the iced coffee was still good.

I made a discovery that regular pint mason jars do not fit in Sparky's cupholders except for the door ones.

A quick switch to the pint quilted jelly jars and we were back in business.

Cold Brew Coffee

I knew cold brewing coffee was next on my summer coffee adventure but I thought it would be difficult. I was looking at this recipe and hem hawed around because I didn't have anything like the bins that were used.

Then someone tweeted me this cold brewed coffee recipe and saw they were just using a jar. A jar?! Well, that is right up my alley!

Cold-Brewed Iced Coffee:

1/3 cup ground coffee

1 & 1/2 cups of water

Mix coffee and water together in a jar and let sit at room temperature for 12 hours. Strain and mix equal parts coffee to water. Add milk and ice.

I practically quadrupled the recipe so I could have a big batch for the week. It really was easy and I was surprised at how smooth the coffee turned out. Went great with my coffee ice cubes!
