How to Make Cold Brew Coffee with a Mason Jar

    What you’ll need:

    • Mason jar
    • Cheesecloth
    • Rubberband
    • Mug/Cup
    • Water
    • Tablespoon
    • Spoon
    • Your favorite ground Cafe Leyenda coffee, like the Columbian Blend, ground to a coarse grind size

    Water to coffee ratio:

      • 4 tablespoon coarse ground coffee per 6 fluid ounce water (20 gram per 180 milliliter)

      Instructions:

      1. Add the coarse ground coffee. Use 4 Tbsp (22 g) of coffee for each cup (6 fl oz, 180 ml).
      2. Add water into the jar. Carefully pour water into the jar, then give the grounds a swirl to thoroughly wet them.
      3. Cover the jar. Cover the Mason jar with a cheesecloth and secure it with a rubber band.
      4. Let the coffee steep. Leave your coffee for 12 hours. Enjoy waking up to a perfectly concentrated brew.
      5. Separate the coffee from the grounds. Strain the coffee into a pitcher by pouring it through a cheesecloth.
      6. Add water, ice & you’re good to go. Pour one part concentrate with one part water into a glass with fresh ice, and enjoy your coffee at home! (Adjust the flavor of your cup to your preferred taste by adding more or less water. Give your cold brew a twist by serving it with a touch of cream, coconut milk or seltzer.)
