If you crave a good iced coffee in the summer, but loathe the way so many end up tasting watery or overly bitter, then there's only one solution: cold brew coffee. This method guarantees a smooth and icy cup, every time.
Making cold brew coffee is no great secret, nor does it require the ninja-level skills of a trained barista in order to master. You don't even need much special equipment beyond a large container for making the coffee and a strainer.

This coffee-making method has a few things going for it:
The slow infusion pulls all the great coffee flavor from the beans (and, yes, the caffeine - not to worry!).But it also leaves behind most of the compounds that can make coffee taste bitter and sour. This means that cold brewed coffee is incredibly smooth and almost sweet-tasting. Perfect for iced coffee.
