I love my morning cup of steaming, hot coffee, but when the weather turns hot, I switch it up with iced coffee. This is a super, simple recipe for making a delicious cup of joe without spending money at the coffee shop!
I love a good cup of coffee. I usually take my with a little cream. When I want to get fancy, I splurge on a “skinny” vanilla latte. Now, here’s the thing. When it’s hot outside, which living in the South mean sky high humidity, I can only drink something hot first thing in the morning. That’s why I had to some up with a way to get my caffeine fix in the afternoons. I did a little research and found out that I can make my own “cold brew” right at home. All I need is some good coffee, my french press or some cheese cloth and a bowl. Add in some cold water and a little time and you’ve got the makings of something great.
