  • 1-2 tablespoons maple syrup or sugar (optional, adjust to taste)
  • 1/4 teaspoon natural vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions

  • 1. Measure 24g of instant coffee grounds and pour 130ml boiling water over them. Stir well.
  • 2. Let the coffee concentrate chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Notes

Use any non-dairy milk and customize sweetness to your preference.

Cold brew concentrate can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
Experiment with flavor additives like cinnamon, cocoa powder, or cold brew with coffee beans for complexity.
