Recipe: Cold Brew Coffee – for iced coffee or lollipops

Cold-brew is simply coffee that is steeped in water overnight then filtered. It produces a smooth coffee essence perfect for making into a range of coffee flavoured treats. The cold-brew process supposedly draws out different flavour compounds to a standard hot-brewed coffee leaving you with a sweeter flavour and less acidic bitterness.

Make a batch to store in the fridge, just whisk into milk for a cold-brew latte or make it into coffee ice cubes so you don’t dilute your drink. As there are fewer acids in it, it keeps well in the fridge.

Or how about some totally moreish, creamy, coffee lollipops? These are sweetened with condensed milk, which is how the Vietnamese drink their coffee. We can see why it makes it so delicious. I made mine with a contrasting Americano layer for a two-tone effect.

You can use it as a base for a cold-brew martini too! Take 1 measure of undiluted cold-brew coffee with 1 measure of vodka and 1 measure of coffee liqueur and shake it all up in a cocktail shaker with lots of ice.
