Cocoadew Honeydew Cold Brew
Difficulty: 2/5
Ingredients:
- 1 cup COCOADEW coffee (coarsely ground)
- 4 cups cold, filtered water
- Ice cubes
- 1-2 tbsp honey (optional)
- Fresh honeydew melon slices (optional garnish)
- Milk or cream (optional, but recommended)
Instructions:
Grind Your Beans:
Start with COCOADEW coffee in whole bean form. Grind it coarsely, like breadcrumbs. This ensures the flavors extract slowly and smoothly, without becoming bitter.
Mix Coffee and Water:
In a large jar or cold brew pitcher, combine 1 cup of coarsely ground coffee with 4 cups of cold, filtered water. Stir gently to make sure all the grounds are soaked evenly.
Let It Steep:
Cover the jar and let the coffee steep in the refrigerator for 12 to 18 hours. The longer it sits, the richer the flavor, so adjust based on your preference.
Strain the Coffee:
After steeping, strain the coffee through a fine mesh sieve or a coffee filter into another container. Discard the grounds.
Sweeten and Serve:
To serve, fill a glass with ice cubes and pour the cold brew over it. For a light sweetness, stir in 1-2 tablespoons of honey. The honeydew notes in the COCOADEW blend pair beautifully with the natural sweetness of honey.
Garnish:
For an extra touch, add a slice or two of fresh honeydew melon to the glass for a cool, fruity garnish. You can also add a splash of milk or cream to give it a creamy, refreshing finish.
Enjoy!
Sip and savor the crisp, refreshing taste of this honeydew-inspired cold brew. It's mellow, subtly sweet, and perfect for those hot days when you need a smooth coffee to cool you down.
