Over the years my hot coffee drinking has been more off, than on. Never much cared for hot black coffee unless it was laced with plenty of sugar and cream. With that though comes weight gain. Back to tea and herbals. Recently, a fellow worker brought in a six ounce cup of ice coffee the cost her $6. Hmm. Can I have a sip? Hey, that's pretty good!
Certainly not one who has difficulty squeezing a nickel out of his arse, I dug out my old hibernating four cup French press from the cupboard, ground up some beans, poured in cold tap water and let the coffee steep for a day, much like how I would make sun tea. Pressed the steeped coffee, put it in a re-cycled, "Simply" brand, plastic bottle and in the fridge overnight.
I expected a bitter black coffee, but was pleasantly surprised; it was as smooth and delicious as the $6 sip. So now, whether at home or on the boat, that is my go to drink. No need for sun, I just set it on the counter for about eight hours, then press and chill it in the fridge overnight. Give it a try, you just might enjoy the outcome.
