Ingredients

Cold Brew Concentrate

½ cup coarse ground coffee
2 cups water cold

Coconut Syrup

½ cup shredded coconut
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¾ cup water

Iced Coconut Cold Brew

½ cup cold brew concentrate
2 tablespoons coconut syrup
¼ cup milk
¼ cup water cold
1 cup ice cubes
Whipped cream or cold foam optional

Instructions

To make the cold brew concentrate, in a French press add the coarse ground coffee. Pour the water over the top and place the lid on top. Do not push to the bottom. Leave overnight.
1/2 cup coarse ground coffee, 2 cups water
After 12-16 hours, filter the cold brew concentrate from the grounds by pushing down your plunger. Use right away or pour concentrate into a jar or carafe until needed.
To make the coconut simple syrup, in a small saucepan add your coconut, sugar, vanilla, and water. Bring to the boil and simmer gently on medium heat until the liquid thickens.
1/2 cup shredded coconut, 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 3/4 cup water
Once the coconut syrup has reduced, strain into a small bowl and discard coconut. Use right away or store in a sealed jar in the fridge until needed.
Fill a glass with ice and pour 1/2 cup cold brew concentrate over the ice.
1/2 cup cold brew concentrate, 1 cup ice cubes
Add the coconut syrup, water and milk and stir to combine. Drink as is or see optional step for toppings.
2 tablespoons coconut syrup, 1/4 cup milk, 1/4 cup water
Optional
Add milk foam or whipped cream on top with a sprinkle of extra shredded coconut. Enjoy!
Whipped cream or cold foam

Notes

For a vegan coconut cold brew, use coconut milk instead of dairy milk.
Add more syrup for a sweeter drink. Leftover syrup can be stored in a sealed jar in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.

To make simple cold milk foam, place 1/2 cup milk into an automatic milk frother (for cold milk) or use a handheld frother. Froth and pour over your drink right away.
