ICED COFFEE - It's a complicated thing !
Don't pour the brewed coffee into a glass full of ice and call it ICED COFFEE.
You get a perfect iced coffee when you follow the cold brew method .
Here goes the recipe for everyone who is addicted to Iced cofffee !!
Begin with dumping 1/3 cup of ground coffee (not instant coffee) in to a jar.
Pour in 1 1/2 cups of cold water ..
Give it a good stir.
And let it rest at room temperature overnight.
Next, strain it a number of times through a fine mesh sieve or a cheesecloth.
You can stock this in the fridge.It will last for a month.
Now when you need iced coffee, grab a glass and fill it to the top with ice.
Pour in equal parts of coffee and water .
And add a splash of milk. If you have half and half in your fridge, add that.
Add 1 Tbsp of Sugar and stir to combine.
And this is how you make a good ICED COFFEE .
Now here is the another variation of iced coffee : EISKAFFEE (GERMAN ICED COFFEE )
You will need a scoop of good vanilla ice cream.
Place the icecream scoop in a wine goblet or a tall drinking glass and pour equal parts of coffee and water into it
Cover it with a mountain of sweetened whipped cream.
And finally sprinkle it with some chocolate chips or krokant. Krokant is a hard sugar candy which is very similar to chikki.
