use cold brew.
alternatively try japanese iced coffee, reduce usual water by half and pour directly over ice.
Not OP, but every cold brew I've tried, and I've tried many, many cold brews, has been simply awful. If it has any flavour at all, that flavour is sour-I'm sorry ACIDIC-with only the absolute faintest hint of any coffee at all. Shop made. Homemade. Bottled store-bought. Canned store-bought. Fancy shop. Shitty shop. All of it bad. Two times, it literally curdled the milk I added to it! For something that's supposed to be "less acidic" than properly brewed coffee, that's a very odd thing for it to do.
What could result in it turning out like this? I'm fine with saying "meh, it's just not for me" except everyone extolls its lack of acidity and my experiences with the stuff have been quite the reverse.
Since I'm from a very hot part of a very hot country, we often take our coffee iced. Why not try our method?
Compared to Anglos, we drip brew it at quadruple(?) strength (85g very dark roasted coffee, often with chicory, per 500ml water) directly over ice. To serve, we typically add 100ish mils of it to 250-300ish mils of milk. Some sweeten it. Some don't. Some brew it over condensed milk (already sweet), mix it up and pour over ice. It's okay, but I prefer fresh milk. We use a specialised brewer of our own but I've used the automatics common in the Anglosphere to similar results. Not identical, but very close.
Oh, and I think it's quadruple strength. I'm not really sure what ratio of coffee to water Brits, Americans, Aussies etc use but their brews taste watered down/weak to me.
Hope this helps.
Black person, are you moronic? Just either get a cold brew pitcher or make your coffee the night before and put in the fridge
Simple recipe:
>add 100g grounds to 1 gallon water
>let sit out for 24hrs
>filter, refridgerate
coffee + ice cubes = iced coffee
put the mix in a mason jar or some container, then put it in the freezer for a bit, take it out just before it freezes and put it in a thermos mug and enjoy
I wish someone out there would make a Stewart’s Iced Coffee copycat. I think it’s too regional and not enough people know them but if you’re from Upstate New York you know it beats Starbucks and DD and the others by a million, it’s fricking out of this world good and I miss it after moving out of NY last year

what's special about it?
Just has a very delicious flavor and doesn’t have the either too bitter or too sweet all the others have it’s like the r perfect balance
These reviewers say it almost tastes like a blend of brewed coffee and melted Colombian ice cream which is kinda a good description I never would’ve thought to describe it that way.
I'll probably never be in New York but it sounds nice.
I miss it. Lake George was our vacation spot for my childhood nothing better than chilling on the boat with one of their iced coffees. I tried to find a good copycat with those cold brews you flavor yourself but it’s not the same. I think like the review said their brew is sweetened before you add anything else.
This one (pic) plus some Italian cream coffee mate hits the spot for me sometimes. Has a fresh taste for one of those bottled cold brews. It’s u sweetened so just adding a splash or two if the Italian cream coffee mate is pretty much all you need
I saw a two packs of these being sold at Costco not too long ago
Ah yes, the world famous colombian ice cream. I too travel just to columbia to experience their ice cream.
>after moving out of NY last year
and where the hell did you move to, carpetbagger?

For me it's Dutch Bros
I live an hour away from Grant's Pass and fricking everybody worships it even though it sucks dick compared to local espresso places
you need one of those pointless unitaskers, a fridge.
I been doing these in the Kuerig pretty good stuff
Brew directly over ice, 60/40 water/ice split, grind your coffee a little finer than usual. All the ice should basically be melted after brewing, so pour into an ice-filled glass.
Or just get off HRT and make your coffee hot.
try some whiskey stones instead of ice
Liquid nitrogen. It'll be solid, but it will be cold.
>freeze coffee in ice cube tray
>cold brew coffee
>cubes in tumbler
>add coffee
>go mischief makers on that b***h
>add chilled cream
Alternatively, fill picrel with coffee and go nuts.
Use a laser to cool each individual atom of the ice coffee to near absolute zero, and suspend the resulting liquid in a magnetic isolation chamber.
