Cold brew coffee is a big hit this summer. You can prepare this interesting and exciting beverage yourself, using one of these methods, immersion or ice drip method. Both are quite simple, but result in different acidity levels. In any case, resulting taste will positively surprise you as well as inspire you for creating great cold brew recipes for tasty summer drinks.
Immersion brewing method is really simple, but requires quite a lot of your time. It produces delicious coffee, sweet without bitter notes, well balanced and with low acidity levels. All you need is a large glass container, freshly ground coffee and water. And you will need some patience, of course. Usual ratio is one to eight, but this depends on your personal taste. Some people rather use one to six ratio instead, to make it all a little bit stronger.
You should simply combine water and coffee and let it sit for 15 to 20 hours in the container. After that, filter the mixture and place your favorite drink in a bottle. You can keep it in your refrigerator for several days. Resulting beverage is smooth, full of wonderful taste and aromatic, with adorable caramel aftertaste.
Ice drip requires special device. Today, there are some simple devices that can be bought quite cheaply, but without precise drip regulation, you won't be able to achieve the same results. Anyway, the whole point is that water should slowly drip on container filled with ground coffee, passing through it, into the jar. This process may last for maybe ten hours or so.
It's interesting to see how it is all done, but it really requires so much time. On the other hand, resulting coffee tastes incredibly good, with several layers of tastes, complex aromas and significantly higher acidity, compared to a previously described method. If you want to achieve the best results, good quality equipment is absolutely necessary.
It's time to try some new recipes. For example, the one called Nutty milk pleasure. For making this lovely summer drink, you will have to have already prepared cold brew coffee, 50 grams roasted almonds, 200 ml water, brown sugar, cinnamon and 100 ml of your favorite ice cream. You can always use vanilla, of course, but almond, chocolate or whipped cream will also be good replacement. You may also replace sugar with stevia, for example.
If you don't have roasted almonds, roast them yourself. Simply put them into the pan and roast for a short time, to release the flavor. Then, ground the almonds and combine with water, strain the mixture, add other ingredients and put some ice cream on the top. You can also put one cinnamon stick on, as decoration.
Caramel touch will be a nice surprise. You will need two tbs sugar, 100 ml milk, 50 ml coffee liqueur and 300 ml cold brew. Caramelize sugar in the pan and pour milk over it. Let it cool and filter the mixture. Combine all the ingredients and serve in a large glass filled with ice. You can also add some ice cream on the top if you like.
