Recipe Notes
You cold brew decaf coffee is ready drink.
This cold brew is concentrated so you can either add water, ice and/or heavy cream when you ready to prepare a serving or drink as is. You can also warm up a cup if you prefer. Just be careful not to overheat it. This should keep quite well in the fridge for about 3 weeks.
