And, more beverage production underway!
(Not just because it's a little hot here, and cold drinks are good. But also partly because I have another gastroscopy scheduled for tomorrow, and anticipate (a) having a sore throat iced drinks should help soothe, and (b) feeling too crappy to do it then. Better to stock up in advance!)
This time, it's some Japanese iced coffee using some of these beans from a pretty awesome local roaster, which have stayed stashed in the freezer.
Basically just use half the usual water amount, with the rest as ice to brew it straight over. (This is one place where it's definitely a scale for the ice, or one hell of a lot of trial and error to find the right amount!) You can also brew it a little more concentrated and add some milk/cream. But, not the plan for this particular fruit bomb.
Those are some of the super fruity Kenyan beans, in a light roast. The overall effect is more like a tea full of berries, and I found that I actually liked it better cold. Very refreshing! (That's also one of the Kenyan coffees with a slightly weird tomato tone, which to me is way more noticeable hot.)
I would have just used the Clever Dripper for this too, but I got lazy. 😅 That would have meant giving the thing a really thorough washing before I used it for tea again, so I made do with a half-assed version of exactly the same "steep and release" approach using the drip machine.
(Turned off as soon as it finished spitting out hot water, since you can't indepently turn off the hearing plate on this model! 🙄 DO NOT NEED under a jar of ice.)
Hey, my other pickle jar just barely fits under the filter cone! 😁 Just. I considered just using the machine's carafe, but there's even less washing if I brew it right into the jar.
(Yeah, you can bet I gave that new jar a couple of good soaks with hot water and baking soda, to neutralize the pickle stank. The lid too. We go through a lot of pickles, okay? 😊)
Nectar! I did manage to resist just swilling the whole jar, and now it's waiting in the fridge.
