Cool off with Iced Coffee.  Here are easy steps to make iced coffee with your favorite gourmet coffee or flavored coffee.

1.  Brew your favorite coffee in a standard auto drip coffee maker, using your regular amount of coffee but only 1/2 the amount of water you normally use.  Brew your coffee.

2.  If you would like your coffee sweetened, now is the time to add sugar or artificial sweeteners, while the coffee is still hot.  Add your sweetener just after the brew cycle finishes and stir until well mixed.  Sweeteners don't mix well when adding with cold coffee.

3.  Allow the coffee to cool to room temperature then pour directly over ice into a pitcher.  Use the same amount of ice as your brewed coffee, a 1 to 1 ratio.  Mix well.

4.  Enjoy your coffee with some additional ice in your mug or cup and add milk or cream if desired.  A dollop of whipped cream on top makes a nice finish.  Refrigerate any unused coffee for consumption up to 24 hours.  After 24 hours the iced coffee will become stale.

Enjoy your iced coffee!
