How To Make Starbucks Iced Coffee At Home

Ingredients

French Press Method

• 4 cups water steaming, not boiling
• 10 scoops coffee grounds

For each cup of iced coffee

• 2 cups freshly pressed coffee
• 1 cup ice cubes
• 1-2 tbs simple syrup (or sweetener/ratio of choice), optional
• 1-2 tbs half and half optional

Instructions

Cold Press Pour Over Method

• Begin by measuring 8 cups of water. Pour the entire pound of coffee grinds into the water, swirl once, and cover. Let sit for 24 hours. After 24 hours, strain through a coffee filter into a pitcher. Refrigerate for 8 hours, and your coffee is ready to drink! This produces a very strong ‘concentration’, if you will.
• In order to prepare the simple syrup, combine equal parts water and sugar in a pot over medium heat. Heat until the sugar dissolves and the liquid is clear. Allow to cool. Keep in an airtight jar in the refrigerator.
• To prepare an iced coffee, fill a cup with ice, pour coffee over it (use 1/2 cup water for every 1/2 cup of concentrate because the coffee will be quite strong), and then add 1-2 tbs of the simple syrup or until the desired sweetness level is attained. Next, add a dash of half and half (or until the desired cream level is attained), stir, and enjoy!

French Press Method

• You will need a French press and a bag of ground coffee. For the warm water, keep it quite hot but not boiling (200 degrees). I microwave water for three minutes for every two cups of water.
• Pour water into French press, add coffee grounds (2.5 scoops per cup of water–a level scoop should contain two tablespoons of coffee, which is around 10 grammes or 0.36 ounces).Stir with a plastic or wooden spoon or reusable plastic straw to avoid scorching the bottom of the French press.
• Allow it settle for 4 minutes before placing the lid on, gently pressing, and pouring the coffee over a large glass of ice.Mix with simple syrup and creamer, or make sweet cream coffee creamer. Enjoy.
