Hey everyone,
I was killing time at a Thai restaurant a few weeks ago and on a whim tried Thai iced coffee. I was bracing myself to the sweetness that turned me off to Thai iced tea. I was pleasantly surprised that it was not too sweet and I quite enjoyed it. They brewed up the coffee ahead of time in bulk and then just mixed the ingredients when anyone ordered.
I was thinking of making some at home but all the recipes I have seen so far are for brewing the coffee right when you are making the Thai iced coffee for someone. I want a recipe (or know how to adapt a regular recipe) so I can make a batch of cold brew in my french press ahead of time and then mix the ingredients when ever I want to make a Thai iced coffee.
When I normally make cold brew, I brew up a strong concentrate that I leave in the refrigerator until needed. Then when I want to drink it, I cut it 50/50 with milk (or water). I am not sure how much concentrate to use to adapt the regular recipes and what to cut it with (or if I should cut it at all) so I don't mess up the Thai iced coffee flavor.
Any recommendations?
Thanks!
