Happy Tuesday! I hope you’re all enjoying the #NationalCoffeeDay freebies! I know I am – I just headed to Dunkin’ Donuts and got a free medium iced coffee – easy! I was certainly not the only one to know about the deal. The line was long, but it moved fast.
Unfortunately, #NationalCoffeeDay can’t be everyday, so I can’t get free coffee every day. That being said, I waste SO much unnecessary money on iced coffee. I’m addicted. I always tell myself that I should be making it on my own, and doing some research really confirmed that. This seems SO easy.
Join me in making your own iced coffee! Don’t be intimidated. FrugalBeautiful makes iced coffee easy with their recipe that I found this morning. I’m inspired!
Things you need:
- Coffee grounds of your choice
- A jar
- A strainer
Directions:
- Measure our 6 ounces of coarsely ground beans with 6 cups of cool or cold water. Use a large pitcher, or a mason jar, combine, and seal. Shake the mixture to make sure the grounds don’t lump together.
- Leave your coffee mixture out for a few hours (overnight, if you can)
- Strain the mixture, preferably with a strainer, or even a coffee filter
- Pour over ice and add your milk/sugar of choice!
- Store any leftovers in the fridge.
Truly that easy – I need to try this! I can’t imagine how much money I’d save.
