We love treating ourselves to an iced coffee at the local coffee shop but it is also nice to save a few pennies by making one at home. We have done a bit of research and come up with a pretty easy way to make iced coffee without even owning a coffee maker. If you do have a coffee maker then you probably have extra coffee each morning. Don't throw it out, anticipate your next iced coffee and freeze it in an ice cube tray. Here is the full recipe adapted from the New York Times.
D.I.Y. Cold Brewed Iced Coffee
1/3 cup coffee grinds
1 1/2 cups water
Place the above in a mason jar and give a shake.
Let rest on the counter overnight.
Double strain and dilute to taste (I like 2/3 coffee & 1/3 water).
Pour over iced coffee cubes, add cream and sugar to taste.
