Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 12-24 hours for cold brewing (infusion time)
Total Time: 12-24 hours and 10 minutes
Servings: This recipe yields approximately 10 servings of cold brew concentrate.
Instructions:
1. Begin by scaling 100 grams of medium-roasted organic Arabica coffee beans and an 8-gram cinnamon stick.
2. Use a wet-dry spice grinder to coarsely grind the beans and cinnamon stick together.
3. Transfer the grounds into a 1-liter mason jar and add 600 milliliters of distilled water.
4. Secure the lid tightly on the jar and give it a single vigorous shake to distribute the grounds evenly.
5. Let the jar sit at room temperature. Coffee grounds will float at the top initially but will slowly sink to the bottom as the infusion progresses. This process may take several hours.
6. Once all the grounds have settled at the bottom, pour the coffee through a fine mesh sieve to remove any remaining grounds.
7. If any sediment is disturbed, let the coffee sit in the refrigerator to continue filtering naturally.
8. To serve, fill a 500-milliliter mason jar with ice. Pour 60 milliliters of the cinnamon cold brew coffee concentrate over the ice.
9. Slowly add 125 milliliters of maple walnut milk to create a layered effect or shake the mixture if you prefer a blended drink.
10. Optionally, garnish with a cinnamon stick for an extra touch of spice and aroma.
Cooking Tips:
- For a stronger coffee concentrate, let the grounds infuse for up to 24 hours.
- If you prefer a sweeter drink, adjust the amount of maple walnut milk to taste.
