If you shop from my blog, I may be compensated for clicks or purchases that you make. Read my disclaimer page for more information.) Do you run your day on caffeine? I’m over here in solidarity with you. My day cannot begin until this momma has at least 2 cups of coffee in peace & quiet. It’s why I wake up 45 minutes before the rest of the family. But, I have a small confession to make…. I never liked coffee. Like Ever. Never Ever. Then, Jordan introduced me to iced coffee. Ohmigosh, it was a game changer. I’ve learned there are several perks to being a former barista’s wife. One of them was learning about iced coffee and cold brew. The Perfectly Easy Recipe for Cold Brew Coffee First things first. Let’s be honest, iced coffee is NOT hot coffee poured over ice. It’s not the hot coffee that you meant to drink this morning and then set in the fridge.Ā  #RealMomMoment Real iced coffee is actually something called Cold Brew . I’ve learned that by allowing the coffee beans to sit in cold filtered water allows the oils to be released into the water. I’m not a chemist, I’m not sure whatĀ happens. But it’s magic. Pure caffeinated magic in concentrate form. *sigh* For our iced cold brew coffee, we use a French Press . If you haven’t used one before, it isĀ a method of drawing out theĀ oils of coffee beans, but for hot coffee. In this house, we use it exclusively for iced coffee (see above note aboutĀ perks ofĀ living with a former barista). This is the time to break out the French Press thatĀ you received as a wedding gift. YES. Ā  If you don’t have one,Ā you’ll need to make the coffee & water in a pitch or mason jar and strain with a cheesecloth. It will be one extra step of filtering itĀ through the cheesecloth. Don’t have a French Press? Need to see cold brew coffee in action? This video tutorial on Cold Brew Coffee is super helpful ! Love making coffee at home? Make your own little DIY coffee bar! I’ll send you the must-haves to get it started šŸ™‚ We won't send you spam. Unsubscribe at any time. The Best Coffee for Cold Brew It all begins with great coffee! And it doesn’t need to be expensive. We’ve tried everything from Caribou, Godiva, Colombian, Folgers in Bulk, and all the Starbucks. Each has their own taste and it’s definitely what you prefer.Ā  However, over the years, we’ve learned the most important thing about making cold brew coffee- — fresh coarse coffee grounds. First, you’ll want to begin with freshly ground coarse coffee. But wait, you have lots of little people running around and don’t have time to grind them yourself? That’s okay before kids I had the nerve to do it myself, too. šŸ˜‰Ā  Now, this momma has to rely on someone else to grind her coffee. Win some, lose some I guess. Anyways, if you can grind your own beans, fabulous, I’m envious. If you cannot, measure out 1/2 cup of your grounds from your Costco sized tub. If you don’t buy your coffee from Costco, you can always go to your neighborhood coffee shop or Starbucks. They will grind your whole bean coffee for you on-site! Make sure to share that you want it coarsely ground, not the usual. Store your coffee tightly sealed and out of sunlight. You’ll be good to go.

Cold brew is less bitter than regular coffee and is so tasty\!* ![If you're an iced coffee addict, you'll love this homemade cold brew coffee recipe! Here's how to make the perfect batch of cold brew coffee at home,](https://www.ourhomemadeeasy.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/cold-brew-coffee.png) *(This post contains affiliate links. If you shop from my blog, I may be compensated for clicks or purchases that you make. Read my [disclaimer page](https://www.ourhomemadeeasy.com/disclaimer/) for more information.)* Do you run your day on caffeine? I’m over here in solidarity with you. My day cannot begin until this momma has at least 2 cups of coffee in peace & quiet. It’s why I wake up 45 minutes before the rest of the family. But, I have a small confession to make…. I never liked coffee. *Like Ever. Never Ever.* Then, Jordan introduced me to iced coffee. Ohmigosh, it was a game changer. I’ve learned there are several perks to being a former barista’s wife. One of them was learning about iced coffee and cold brew. ## **The Perfectly Easy Recipe for Cold Brew Coffee** First things first. Let’s be honest, iced coffee is NOT hot coffee poured over ice. It’s not the hot coffee that you meant to drink this morning and then set in the fridge. *\#RealMomMoment* ![This refreshing cold brew iced coffee recipe is the perfect pick-me-up for your morning](https://www.ourhomemadeeasy.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/Iced-Cold-Brew-5.jpg) **Real iced coffee is actually something called *Cold Brew*.** I’ve learned that by allowing the coffee beans to sit in cold filtered water allows the oils to be released into the water. I’m not a chemist, I’m not sure what happens. But it’s magic. Pure caffeinated magic in concentrate form. \*sigh\* For our iced cold brew coffee, we use a **[French Press](http://amzn.to/2l7uLFQ)** ![](http://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=ouhomaea-20&l=as2&o=1&a=B00008XEWG) . If you haven’t used one before, it is a method of drawing out the oils of coffee beans, but for hot coffee. In this house, we use it exclusively for iced coffee (see above note about perks of living with a former barista). This is the time to break out the French Press that you received as a wedding gift. *YES.* If you don’t have one, you’ll need to make the coffee & water in a pitch or mason jar and strain with a cheesecloth. It will be one extra step of filtering it through the cheesecloth. ***Don’t have a French Press?*** Need to see cold brew coffee in action? **[This video tutorial on Cold Brew Coffee is super helpful](https://www.simplyrecipes.com/recipes/how_to_make_cold_brew_coffee/)**\! ![This delicious cold brew iced coffee recipe is the perfect way to start your day\!](https://www.ourhomemadeeasy.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/Iced-Cold-Brew-9.jpg) **Love making coffee at home? Make your own little DIY coffee bar! I’ll send you the must-haves to get it started šŸ™‚** ## **The Best Coffee for Cold Brew** It all begins with great coffee! And it doesn’t need to be expensive. We’ve tried everything from Caribou, Godiva, Colombian, Folgers in Bulk, and all the Starbucks. Each has their own taste and it’s definitely what you prefer. However, over the years, we’ve learned the most important thing about making cold brew coffee-*— fresh coarse coffee grounds.* First, you’ll want to begin with freshly ground coarse coffee. *But wait, you have lots of little people running around and don’t have time to grind them yourself?* That’s okay before kids I had the nerve to do it myself, too. šŸ˜‰ **Now, this momma has to rely on someone else to grind her coffee.** Win some, lose some I guess. Anyways, if you can grind your own beans, fabulous, I’m envious. If you cannot, measure out 1/2 cup of your grounds from your Costco sized tub. If you don’t buy your coffee from Costco, you can always go to your neighborhood coffee shop or Starbucks. They will grind your whole bean coffee for you on-site! Make sure to share that you want it coarsely ground, not the usual. Store your coffee tightly sealed and out of sunlight. You’ll be good to go. ![Making iced coffee at home is made extra easy with this delicious and simple cold brew coffee recipe](https://www.ourhomemadeeasy.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/Iced-Cold-Brew-8.jpg) ***Related Posts I Think You’ll Enjoy:*** - *[Copycat Starbucks Salted Cream Cold Foam Cold Brew](https://www.ourhomemadeeasy.com/starbucks-salted-cream-cold-foam-cold-brew/)* - *[Easy No Bake Chocolate & Peanut Butter Bites](https://www.ourhomemadeeasy.com/no-bake-peanut-butter-bites/)* ### **Love coffee at home?

This gives enough head space for the coffee. Pour the coffee grounds over the water. ![This french press cold brew coffee is rich and flavorful, perfect for a morning pick-me-up](https://www.ourhomemadeeasy.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/Iced-Cold-Brew-3.jpg) \\ ![There's nothing better than a cup of cold, creamy iced coffee in the morning! ](https://www.ourhomemadeeasy.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/Iced-Cold-Brew-4.jpg) Patiently wait 8-12 hours for the coffee to develop! Then it’s the best part. Not only do you get to enjoy the fruits of your patience, but you get to press down the French press. My husband usually beats me to it. It makes me sad for a small moment. šŸ˜‰ I like to serve my coffee over a glass full of ice (*it dilutes it perfectly*) and some sweet creamer. Feel free to toss in your preferred sweetener or milk. Enjoy\! *P.S. Since we’ve moved North to Michigan, and it seems unusual to drink iced coffee all year long, I’ve learned to appreciate the hot stuff too\!* šŸ™‚ *P.S.S. We’ve **[moved to Arizona](https://www.ourhomemadeeasy.com/life-lately-moved-to-arizona/)**! I’m back to enjoying cold brew coffee year around\!* ## Ingredients - 1/2 cup coarse coffee grounds - 32 ounces of cold filtered water - Optional: Creamer or Sweetener ## Instructions 1. Fill the French Press with water to just below metal collar. Leave enough room for the coffee. 2. Pour the coffee grounds over the water. 3. Gently set the French Press Lid on top of the coffee mixture. Do not plunge. 4. Let sit for 8-12 hours. Plunge the French Press. 5. Pour the concentrate over a glass of ice. Add creamer or sugar as desired. 6. Store remaining coffee concentrate in the refrigerator. **Cheers\!** ![](https://www.ourhomemadeeasy.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Signoff.png) ### **Love coffee at home?
