Iced Coffee

It's beginning to warm up!  Here is a nice, cool way to prepare your coffee. 










1 1/2 c. cold water
1/3 c. ground coffee (medium-course ground is the best)

In a measuring cup, stir together coffee and 1 1/2 cups water. Cover and let rest at room temperature overnight or 12 hours. 

Strain twice through a coffee filter and a fine-mesh sieve or a sieve lined with cheesecloth.

In a tall glass, mix sugar, creamer, and room temperature coffee.  (This will help sugar dissolve before chilling.)  If desired, add milk; then add ice.  Let stand for 3-5 minutes to chill completely.
