Great Iced Coffee Without Great Expense

 
Cold Brew Coffee

1 cup ground coffee
32-ounce container (1 quart)

Strainer
Large basket type coffee filters


Place ground coffee in container, fill with cold water. Cover and let sit for twelve to fifteen hours. Place strainer over large bowl and put coffee filter inside. Slowly pour over about half of the coffee and let sit until strained. Replace filter and repeat.

To make regular coffee: Place equal parts coffee concentrate and water in cup and heat.


To make iced coffee: Place equal parts concentrate and milk in glass. Add ice, sweetened as desired. You may find my preference for iced coffee a bit strong for you so leave room to add some water to weaken it if need be!

Mocha Ice Café

I am a coffee lover so this is to die for.......great summer drink.... sorry, it's not low cal


6 ounces fresh, strong, brewed Folgers® Whole Bean coffee
3 or 4 ice cubes
1 scoop coffee-flavored ice cream
Sugar, to taste
2 to 3 tablespoons sweetened whipped cream (or whipped topping)
Sugar, to taste

1. Pour the hot coffee into a heatproof 10-ounce glass.

2. Add the ice cubes and stir until coffee is chilled.

3. Add the ice cream and top with the whipped cream.

4. Taste and add sugar, if desired.

5. Serve with a long-handled spoon and a straw.

Tip: Brewing the whole bean coffee stronger than normal helps to maintain the rich coffee flavor and prevents it from being diluted by the ice.
