When it comes to a cold brew coffee, two brewing methods can be used, the one called the immersion method, and the ice drip method. Both are quite interesting and really simple, and each has its own characteristics. Among numerous cold brew recipes you will probably find something for yourself.

Immersion is so simple you can start with it right now. All you need is some freshly ground coffee, water and a container that is large enough for the mixture. Normally, people use one part of coffee and eight parts of water, but you can adjust this ratio to your taste. Some people like stronger taste, and, i this case, simply use less water instead.

You should simply combine water and coffee and let it sit for 15 to 20 hours in the container. After that, filter the mixture and place your favorite drink in a bottle. You can keep it in your refrigerator for several days. Resulting beverage is smooth, full of wonderful taste and aromatic, with adorable caramel aftertaste.

Ice drip method is simple as well, but it requires special equipment. The whole system consists of one water container with water drip regulator, one container for ground coffee and a jar under it. This system uses different ratio, usually one to ten, depending on your personal taste. You will need some patience here as well, because the whole process may take up to ten hours.

It's interesting to see how it is all done, but it really requires so much time. On the other hand, resulting coffee tastes incredibly good, with several layers of tastes, complex aromas and significantly higher acidity, compared to a previously described method. If you want to achieve the best results, good quality equipment is absolutely necessary.

So, now you have the base for your tasty summer cocktails. Maybe you should try this one. It is called Nutty milk pleasure, and it's not so hard to make it. Two table spoons of brown sugar, water, approximately 200 ml, some cinnamon powder, 200 ml of your cold infusion, and maybe 100 grams of whipped cream or vanilla ice cream instead, depending on your personal taste.

Roast the almonds in the pan for a few seconds, let them cool and then put them in your food processor. Process them and add 200 ml water. Filter the mixture and combine with brown sugar and cinnamon. Add your previously prepared coffee and vanilla ice cream. Decorate with cinnamon stick and enjoy.

Another delightful summer beverage is so called Caramel touch. This one is even easier to prepare. Caramelize two table spoons sugar and combine with 100 ml milk. You can use almond or rice milk as well. Strain the mixture and let it cool. Combine 300 ml cold brew coffee with 50 ml coffee liqueur. Fill two large glasses with ice. Add caramelized milk and coffee, decorate with ice cream or whipped milk.
