COLD BREW
- Add coffee grounds and water to a large pitcher or French Press*.
- Stir to make sure all the grounds are wet and place in the fridge 12-24 hours to steep.
- Strain the coffee into a fresh pitcher using a nut milk bag* and discard/compost the grounds. If using a French Press just push down the handle and depose of the grounds once finished.
- Place back in the fridge to store.
SIMPLE SYRUP
- Combine the water and sugar in a pot and place on the stove over medium heat. Bring to a low simmer and let cook for about 10 - 15 minutes until the sugar is completely dissolved and the liquid has reduced a bit.
- Pour into a glass jar (like a Mason jar) and let cool completely.
- Store in the refrigerator for up to a month.
MINT COLD BREW ASSEMBLY
- Add 3-4 mint leaves to the bottom of a tall glass. With a muddler, back of spoon, or straw, muddle the leaves slightly to release the oils.
- Add ice cubes to the glass.
- Add in cold brew coffee to nearly fill the glass.
- Add in a splash of the simple syrup (or any other liquid sweetener of choice) to the cold brew and stir to combine.
- Add a splash of half & half, milk, cream, or any non-dairy alternative you prefer, and enjoy!
