Homemade Iced Coffee Recipe
Posted by BritLSUfan on 5/1 at 5:33 pm
So the temps are in the high 80's, it's time to switch from an afternoon cappuccino to an iced coffee. After a few experiments I ended up with these quantities that make a nice large glassful.

Ingredients (serves 1)
2 oz freshly made espresso
3 oz 1/2 and 1/2
Raw Cane Sugar to taste ( I used 3/4 teaspoon)
Dark Syrup

Method
Fill large glass with ice
Add 3/4 teaspoon raw cane sugar and 1/2 teaspoon syrup to a cup that will receive the espresso
Brew espresso onto sugar and syrup
Stir and pour onto ice filled glass.
Add 1/2 and 1/2 and stir.
Optional: Garnish with whipped cream and syrup.

Repeat until coffee craving is satisfied.

The only correct way to make ice coffee is to cold brew it overnight.

I agree, however for those who didn't prep ahead of time

the above works pretty well and certainly hit the spot for me.

Recipe sounds good. Not to hijack but I have a cold coffee related question.

I am looking to cold brew some French Market Coffee And Chicory for iced coffeeshave. What proportions of coffee and water do you guys typically use to cold brew?

This LINK suggests 1lb of coffee to 2 gals water, adjust to taste.

My go to method is to use the "Toddy" brand cold drip maker. They're available around most towns.

1 lb coarsely ground Viennese blend
Fill half way and allow to soak for a few minutes and then slowly fill up to the top.
Allow to stand 12 hours or so.
Drain into decanter
For each glass mix the extract with water to taste. I do about 2 parts water to 1 part extract.
