👨‍🍳 Method

  1. 1
    Put the coffee in a large jar and pour the cold water over it.
    Jar
    💡Coarse grind only: a fine grind draws out bitterness over the long steep, and the drink comes out cloudy.
  2. 2
    Stir well with a long spoon, until all the coffee is wet.
  3. 3
    Cover and steep in the fridge 12–24 hours.
    Refrigerator
  4. 4
    Strain through a fine sieve lined with a coffee filter into a clean pitcher.
