Instructions:

  1. Coarsely grind your coffee beans or get freshly ground beans from a local coffee shop or roaster. While pre-ground beans will also work, we don’t recommend them for the best tasting cold brew.

  2. Place the ground coffee in a 28-ounce cup or jar. Add water and stir.

  3. Cover and set aside for 12 to 24 hours at room temperature.

  4. Spread a coffee filter in a fine mesh strainer and place it over a large bowl. Strain the coffee through the filter and strainer. Now you’ve got cold brew! Well, I guess it’s room temperature brew. Store your coffee in the fridge until you’re ready to enjoy it.

  5. When serving, drizzle caramel syrup along the inside of your favorite glass. Pour in roughly a half-glass of cold brew, then fill the remaining half of the glass with Salty Caramel Caribou ice cream. Yum!
