Categories     Drinks

Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 4

1-2 teaspoons instant coffee ((to taste))
⅓ cup creamer of your choice
⅔ cup cold water
Ice

Steps:

  • Begin by adding 1 to 2 teaspoons of instant ground coffee and ⅓ cup of your favorite creamer to a glass. Stir well so that the coffee grounds are evenly mixed throughout the creamer. You will notice that the coffee grounds start dissolving, but they probably will not be dissolved all the way yet.
  • Next, add ⅔ cup of cold water to the glass to fully dissolve the coffee. If you want a lighter coffee flavor, you can add up to 1½ cup of water to the glass. Stir consistently until the coffee fully dissolves. This may take a few minutes. So, expect to be stirring for a bit.
  • After the coffee has completely dissolved, add as much ice as you like. Enjoy!

Tips for Brewing Iced Coffee:

  • Choose the Right Coffee Beans: Opt for beans with bright, fruity, or nutty flavors to create a refreshing iced coffee. Lighter roasts tend to work best.
  • Grind Your Coffee Coarsely: This will help prevent over-extraction and bitterness. You can also use pre-ground coffee, but make sure it's coarse.
  • Use Cold Water: Never use hot water to brew iced coffee, as this will result in a bitter taste. Cold water will extract the coffee's flavors more gently.
  • Brew a Strong Batch of Coffee: You can use any brewing method you like, but it's important to brew a strong batch of coffee to ensure flavor dilution when adding ice.
  • Chill Your Coffee Quickly: Once brewed, chill your coffee quickly by pouring it over ice or placing it in the refrigerator or freezer for a shorter period.
