Concentrated Iced Coffee

[UnknownDonut]

Looking to grab some concentrated iced coffee.


I’m usually more of a hot coffee person, but I tried a free sample of Starbucks Caramel Cold Brew and actually really liked it.


Any recommendations for something that tastes good and doesn’t cost a fortune ?

Just make cold brew at home. This will be fine. Makes about 4 cups..or 2 big mugs.

scoop ground coffee into it, add water, wait 24hrs in the fridge.

Thanks Raymond,
Any particular ground coffee you think is great ?
so would I just add flavoured syrup to this, or would the cost of buying syrup mean I might as well buy a flavoured concentrated cold brew ?

The good thing about cold brew method is that it can "hide" bad coffee, so I almost always use my worse beans in it, so start with your go to supermarket beans or grounds, and go from there. Seeing you are adding sugar and milk, which will mask it even more so it really doesn't make sense spending lots on the coffee.

When you drink it, just pour, add your milk and sugar like you just made a hot coffee. No need to add more water.

But when you fill it with grounds at the start, don't fill it to the brim, leave the top 20% free so it has space to move around.

As for syrup, surely you just need like a tea spoon or so per cup, and a 750ml will last absolutely ages? Plus a bottled syrup has a much longer shelf life in a cupboard vs pre mix concentrated cold brew.

That's some great advice, cheers Raymond

I'll give this a go, I'm thinking of taking a litre flask to work, bypass the bitter awful vending machine coffee.
