Barista Tips & TricksBarista Tips and Tricks

Easy iced coffee at home.

Iced coffee at home is a piece of cake.  But first a quick kitchen safety tip:  Never pour hot liquid into a cold glass, or vice versa. The easiest way to make good iced coffee at home is to use whatever brewing method you prefer.  Use the recommended 2 Tbsp. of coffee to every six ounces of water, but set half of your water aside.  By brewing with the same amount of coffee but less water you are essentially making a coffee concentrate.  After brewing go ahead and mix the cold water in with the brewed coffee.  You can serve it up right away or keep it in the fridge for a few hours to chill.  Just like any brewed coffee it will go stale, yes even in the fridge, so try to drink it that day for best flavor.  A few ice cubes, your favorite International Delight creamer and you’re good to go.
