Not that I drink coffee pregnant ;)

Ingredients to make 4 tall glasses of iced coffee:

1 heaping cup of ground good coffee - we're snobs and stick to Starbucks or Dunn Brother's

4 cups of bottled water

A french press or coffee maker with a basket that doesn't require a paper liner (supposedly pulls oils from the coffee)

Raw sugar and cream to taste

1. Place coffee grounds in basket without a liner or the bottom of your large french press

2. Pour water into coffee maker or on top of grounds in your press

3. Brew :)

4. Pour brewed coffee into a pitcher

5. Add sugar to taste (we use 1/4 cup to sweeten all of the coffee)

6. Pour coffee over ice

7. Add cream to taste (or don't)

8. Enjoy!!!!


*To make a great pot of hot coffee the general rule is 1 tablespoon of coffee for every three ounces of water put into your coffee maker. This will make coffee about the strength as the cup of coffee you enjoy at Starbucks (or Dunn Brothers - yum!)*

I love that you posted this. So...how do you make a half-caf ? Just get half reg. and half decaf?

I'm glad you're loving this post! :) Yes, you would just use 1/2 decaf and 1/2 regular coffee.
