Cold brew coffee

Cold brew coffee is a method of making coffee where coarsely ground coffee beans are steeped in cold water for an extended period, usually 12 to 24 hours. This process extracts flavors without the acidity often associated with hot brewing methods. The result is a smooth, rich coffee concentrate that can be served over ice or mixed with milk, water, or sweeteners. Cold brew is popular for its refreshing taste, lower acidity, and versatility, making it a favorite choice, especially in warm weather. It's distinct from iced coffee, which is brewed hot and then cooled.
