Brewed coffee poured over ice and adding your favorite flavorings is hardly a recipe.
Whether it be served black, flavored, or with a touch of cream, you will have the perfect iced coffee treat that is a lot less expensive than going to the pricey coffee establishments.
Really the best coffees are made from being fresh perked over coffee frozen ice cubes however in your busy schedule feel free to make it however you like from your fast coffee makers instead of freshly perked.
Coffee percolators once enjoyed great popularity but were supplanted in the early 1970s by automatic drip coffee makers.
The news has documented that French Style press coffee makers or any types of coffee makers that don't use a paper filter can slightly raise cholesterol levels so we always use a paper filter no matter what type of coffee maker it is.
Plus on that health subject, drinking large amounts of unfiltered coffee has been linked to heart disease and another reason I always use a paper coffee filter when making coffee.
Our recipes are so much more economical than stopping and get one of those frozen treats and super easy to make not to mention perfect for using up that leftover coffee!
