Homemade Iced Coffee

Homemade Iced Coffee 1 - cup ground coffee 1 - 32 ounce container or (1 quart mason jar) water strainer large basket type coffee filters (about 2) gourmet flavored syrups, optional Place ground coffee in container, fill with cold water. Cover and let sit overnight. In the morning place strainer over large bowl and add a coffee filter inside. Slowly pour over about half of the coffee and let sit until strained. Replace filter and repeat. To make regular coffee: place equal parts coffee concentrate and water in cup and heat. To make iced coffee: Place equal parts concentrate and milk in glass. Add ice, sweetened as desired. You may find my preference for iced coffee a bit strong for you so leave room to add some water to weaken it if need be. Add sugar or sugar substitute and any flavored syrup of your choice. This concentrate is not just for iced coffees. You can also use it to make hot coffee in the morning without all of the brewing. This is perfect for those who have problems with traditional coffee being too harsh on their stomachs. Simply mix equal parts concentrate and water, heat and go! Cooks Note: This concentrate will easily keep up to 3 weeks in your fridge with no change in flavor.
