Keeping cool with Iced Coffee
July 31st, 2009
My first exposure to chilled coffee drinks was the ubiquitous Cold Coffee in Australia. I was on a backpack trip and could not stomach the stuff. I was young. What did I know?
Record setting heat in Seattle has brought me back to ice-cold coffee. Like many people out here, we do not have air conditioning. The thermometer has hit 100º+ Fahrenheit. A hot cup on a hot day is just not doing the trick. Iced-coffee is simple to make. Let the French (Freedom) Press steep overnight in the fridge. Serve over ice. It is delicious.
Stay cool.
