I love this easy cold brew recipe

Smooth Work Day Cold Brew

By

I spend much of my work days with a hot cup of tea. But I've been reading that cold brews are milder and sweeter than hot-brewed coffee and that coffee contains healthy antioxidants, can lower inflammation and can protect against disease, so I decided to give cold brews a try. Not to mention that I normally need a caffeine boost to get me through my day. Plus, my friends at Lardera Coffee Roasters recently sent me two of their straight-from-the-farm ground coffees to try, Kenya Washed and Tipica Honey plus a Lardera Cold Brew Pitcher ($24), so I figured the time was right to start making some Continue reading...
