When the weather heats up, there's nothing quite like a refreshing iced coffee. And with a French Press, making iced coffee at home is a breeze. In this guide, we'll show you how to make a delicious and refreshing iced coffee using your French Press.
What You'll Need
- A French Press
- Freshly roasted coffee beans from I Brew It
- A coffee grinder
- Hot water
- Ice
- Milk or cream (optional)
Step 1: Brew Your Coffee
Start by brewing a strong pot of coffee in your French Press. You'll want to use a bit more coffee than you usually would, as the ice will dilute the coffee flavour. For a standard 34-ounce French Press, we recommend using about 70 grams of coffee.
Step 2: Cool Your Coffee
Once your coffee is brewed, let it cool to room temperature. You can speed up this process by placing the French Press in the refrigerator. Once the coffee is cool, you're ready to make iced coffee.
Step 3: Prepare Your Glass
Fill a glass with ice. If you like, you can also add milk or cream to your glass.
Step 4: Pour and Serve
Pour the cooled coffee over the ice. Stir to combine the coffee and milk (if using). Your French Press iced coffee is now ready to enjoy!
Step 5: Enjoy
Sip and enjoy your refreshing iced coffee. It's the perfect way to stay cool and caffeinated on a hot day.
With this easy French Press recipe, you can enjoy a refreshing iced coffee anytime you like. Happy brewing!
