The Last Iced Coffee Recipe
I prefer Iced Coffee over any sodas...I think their the most dangerous beverage going, and we're setting bad example for more over weightiness.
I Love Creamy and Sweet Iced Coffee and HATE paying over $4 a glass for it at some fancy coffee house!
After literally years of trying, I have found it! I’m trying to find an easier way that tastes as good.
I have figured out how to make the perfect creamy & sweet Iced coffee for pennies a glass
First...
You have to make your coffee concentrate.
(This is the only part of the process that takes some time)
Don't worry; the gallon of coffee concentrate you end up with will make enough to last you for a month in the fridge!
You do NOT want to brew a normal pot of coffee for your iced coffee.
You want to cold-brew it.
This leaves you with a smooth, acid-free coffee base that we all love for a refreshing cold drink.
Iced Coffee Concentrate.
Ingredients-
1 gallon water (I buy a gallon of drinking water)
1 lb bag of your favorite rich coffee (course ground if ya can get it)
Coffee filters or several layers of cheesecloth
a fine mesh strainer.
a large bowl
pitcher (big enough to hold a gallon)
Directions-
Pour gallon of water into your large bowl.
Dump the entire bag of coffee into the water/bowl.
Stir to make sure all grounds are saturated with water.
Walk away, for 12 hours or overnight.
Line a mesh strainer with a coffee filter or several layers of cheese-cloth, set the strainer on top of your pitcher.
Pour (or ladle) your coffee mixture into the strainer.
(This part takes a while... I often had to walk away while it filtered into the pitcher) If using coffee filters, you might have to replace them several times during the filtering process.
Once all the coffee concentrate has been filtered, stick it in the fridge (it will last for a month!)

Mix both cans together, refrigerate.
Dana's Sweet Creamy Iced Coffee
Grab your favorite glass and fill it to the top with ice.
2. Pour iced coffee concentrate into your glass, filling it a little more than half-full.
3. Add Sweet Cream into the coffee/ice glass until full (or to taste)
4. stir to combine.
5. I borrowed this recipe off the internet and didn't get the link...I changed the sweethened condensed milk (too much sugar for a diabetic.) HEAVY Cream and Stevia, Guava syrup and sometimes I make it without sugar (gallon) then add in xyithol packets I get cheap from Swansons vitamins.
