Do you like Cold Brew? Are you buying it all the time? Well, I got to tell you that I stopped buying coffee all together in the coffee shops unless I am meeting a friend.
I do not see a point at all when I can make coffee just the way I like it. Plus, I save a few bucks along the way. I love a strong, dark roast coffee so sometimes I really cannot get that taste especially if I get it in the most popular cafes.
Yes, some of them do surprise me every now and then, but not often. I am very picky when it comes to coffee.
Since my daughter and I only drink coffee in our household, I make one batch for two of us. Of course, she does not drink it every single day, so I consume her serving as well. I love making a smaller amount so that way we always have freshly made brew.
Add coffee in the French Press, then add filtered COLD water. Yes, you can add hot water, however, that is when the coffee starts to bloom and release different flavor, even aroma. So when you pour cold water, you will get the lower acidity and some flavor compounds do not come through via cold brewing, which gives it a smoother taste.
At first add a bit of water, like a splash, then mix to make coffee wet, then add the rest. Stir well again! Place the top on but do not push all the way down.
We need to allow the coffee to brew from 12 to 24 hours in the fridge. This is crucial for your cold
When the time comes to consume it, push the filter down and pour it into your glass, preferably over the ice. You may add sweetener and cream, or perhaps enjoy it just the way it is.
Usually, I make another batch as soon as I am done with the coffee.
You can use a mason jar to make cold brew. Use nut-bag, cheesecloth or fine strainer as a filter.

We officially started school. It is so hard to get back to the routine again, but with a help of Dunkin’ Donuts® Original Blend Coffee — More of what you love in a convenient new 30oz canister. Anyhow, I am slowly and surely getting back to prepping things at night and waking up very early with only one thought on my mind, which is to inhale that aroma of coffee. Don’t we all wait for that each morning? I mean, coffee lovers, of course.
Just last week when we went school supply shopping, I stopped by Publix and got Dunkin’ Donuts® 30 oz. Canister — new package, but same Dunkin’ Donuts® Original Blend. Since I am the only one consuming coffee in the house, well, sometimes my daughter get a cup of coffee as well, Dunkin’ Donuts® 30 oz. Canister lasts us a long time.
This new Dunkin’ Donuts® coffee (30oz) Canister of the original blend is so convenient and at a great value! It saved me big time because our dear high schoolers start school at 7 am so waking up at 5:30 is crucial. First of all, I am not a morning person, and second, I cannot open my eyes before taking a couple of sips of delicious coffee.
I just love it with something sweet like donuts or some sweet pastry. I am not a breakfast eater, but I must admit that sweet pastry and cup of hot coffee in the morning or It is a match made in heaven. Don’t you agree?
Of course, I love my coffee hot and dark with a drop of sweetener, although I have made iced coffee as well as made my summer frappe using Dunkin’ Donuts® Original Blend. How do I make my favorite coffee you may ask? Well, since I love stronger coffee, I pour nearly boiling water over the coffee grinds in my french press and wait for a bit until the coffee just bloom giving me that amazing aroma throughout the house. The coffee has a crisp, bright flavor, with a pleasant taste that always lingers on my palette.
How do you take your coffee? Do you like munching on some pastry while sipping on a coffee? I would love to hear. I have been drinking coffee for a long time, and my first real job was at the coffee shop where I was packing coffee for a sale. With that being said, I know a good coffee when I taste one, and Dunkin’ Donuts® Original Blend is pretty darn delicious.
Now, this is how I make my coffee in the French press.
Preheat your press with hot water, including the plunger, then transfer that water by pouring it into your cup. Meanwhile, measure 5 tablespoons or 27 grams of coffee.

Is there anything more comforting than cozying up with a cup of hot cocoa during the winter season?
I say, no there is nothing more comforting. While kids are home on the winter break, I made a large jar of homemade hot cocoa mix and we are planning to enjoy it often. You really do not need to buy store-bought hot cocoa when you can make it in matters of 5 minutes and enjoy it all winter long.
I really cherish this time with kids still home. I don’t know how I am going to handle when they all leave my nest. I stayed with them all their life, started this blogging journey just to be here when they need me. There is nowhere I rather wish to be right now than here with three of them close to me, with our favorite animated movie on and a cup of homemade hot cocoa.
Who do you cherish in your life?
I hope you guys like this recipe, and if you do happen to make it please tag me on Instagram @sandraseasycooking and use hashtag #sandraseasycooking so I am able to see your delicious creations and share with my readers as well. Thanks in advance!!!
