Iced Coffee?

I know that this isn't really the time of year for it. But does anyone have any good recipes? Bonus points if it's low fat/cal!

Re: Iced Coffee?

  • I drink iced coffee year round :) I use cold brew method to make a big pot of it to keep on hand. Then, I just use whatever syrup/creamer I'm craving at the time.

    The cold brew is super easy:

    Iced Coffee
    1 pound Ground Coffee (good, Rich Roast)
    8 quarts Cold Water
    Whatever cream, milk, syrup you like

    In a large container, mix ground coffee with water. Cover and allow to sit at room temperature eight hours or overnight.

    Line a fine mesh strainer with cheesecloth and set over a pitcher or other container. Pour coffee/water mixture through the strainer, allowing all liquid to run through. Discard grounds.

    Place coffee liquid in the fridge and allow to cool. Use as needed.

  • Ditto pp, in the summer I keep a batch of cold brewed coffee in the fridge in a glass pitcher or dispenser, and add milk and sugar-free syrup to it.  So easy, and makes enough to last a week.

  • I cold brew coffee then mix it with a tablespoon of fat free sweetened condensed milk.
