pinterest: iced coffee


ok i am seriously addicted to pinterest and trying all these pins!!!

click on the "pin" to take you to the pin. the pin, then will take you directly to the original link for the full recipe...

my friend ryoks, sent me an email to make an amazing iced coffee, but never got around to making it since it called for a gallon's worth of water...and totally forgot to try the recipe. she then gets me addicted to pinterest! pinning here and there. celia, calls me out on a recipe! PINNED and challenge accepted!
i had to modify the recipe since i did not have a large container to accommodate the original recipe.

4 ounces of ground coffee
2 quarts of cold water





i poured in the 4 ounces of ground coffee straight into a container large enough to accommodate a little over 2 quarts of water
pour in the cold water and stir. cover the container and let it sit for at least 8 hours on the counter. you can opt to do it overnight if you wish. i was impatient. opted for 9 hours instead.
grab the container you wish to store the concoction in. have your mesh strainer and cheese cloth ready.




slowly pour the mixture with grounds into the strainer.


VOILA! place in fridge. ready to drink!!!
the next day i woke up to an amazing cup of iced coffee to start my day of errands!


a little shot of simple non sugar syrup and a little milk.


two thumbs up!
