this easy iced coffee can be made right in your drip coffee filter and tastes as good as any at your local cafe!
Let’s face it, it’s hard to beat a glass of cold & refreshing iced coffee on a hot summer day, but it can also be hard to justify buying one every day of the week.
When I was in grad school and trying like hard to save whatever money I had, I came up with this easy at-home iced coffee recipe so that I could still enjoy a refreshing coffee drink on hot summer days without breaking the bank.
It’s been my go-to recipe ever since and I still make it, despite not being (quite so) broke.
I make it right in my drip coffee filter (the same one that I use to make hot coffee) and it comes out perfect every single time.
So if you’re looking to save a little this summer but still want to partake in iced coffee season, I highly recommend giving this a try!
And if you have any tips & tricks for the perfect at-home iced coffee – please share! I always love trying different coffee recipes 🙂
