Directions

Iced coffee not only provide you with your much needed caffeine fix, but also it cools you down during those unbearably hot months. There is an art that’s worth perfecting when it comes to making iced coffee.
Perfect Iced coffee is brewed with hot water (that hot coffee is then cooled over ice) which means more of the oils and acidic flavors are released, this can result in a bitter taste.
