hey everyone so in today's video we are making something I love and that is cold
brew if you're new don't forget to subscribe for more videos and follow me
on instagram for lots of Giveaways and healthy living inspiration so I'm
driving off with some whole coffee beans and I like to grind my beans fresh I
find this really makes a difference in the cold brew and I do
8:58 on mine which is a very coarse grind and I measure out a hundred and
forty grams of that this will all be down in the description box below case
you miss it so I find this really makes a big difference when you're making cold
brew to have some nice fresh beans and then I'm going to add in some water into
the top of my French press like until the level of the top which is about a
liter I'll also leave a cheap coffee grinder in case you guys don't have one
at down in the description box along with the French press and everything
else that I use I stir that up with a spoon to kind of get it come and bind
and then we are going to be putting in some plastic wrap over the top just to
help seal in everything you don't want to like put this thing down through the
French press yet you want it to brew so we're just going to use saran wrap over
the top and make sure you get a nice cold seal on it and then we're going to
be popping that in the fridge and after about 12 to 16 hours you will have your
magical cold brew and through the magic of YouTube I had this one ready to go
for this video so I'm stirring up with the spoon again just because you'll
notice that the coffee grounds get kind of solid at the top so just kind of
mixing that together one final time and then pushing it down the top of it so
the first recipe I like to make with this cold glue concentrate is this
coconut one so we're taking half a cup of our cold brew concentrate and mixing
a VAT with one cup of coconut water and coconut water is great because it has
loads of potassium loads of electrolytes and it's naturally sweetened from the
coconuts there's no added sugar so it makes it slightly sweet which tastes
amazing and great for like a post-workout or even a
morning to replenish those electrolytes or but just a really really hot day
where you live this is perfect and it's super yummy with a little bit of
sweetness next up were making a maca mocha cold brew so I'm starting again
with half a cup of our cold brew concentrate and this concentrate will
keep for like seven days in the fridge you can make a big batch of it a heaping
a tablespoon of cocoa powder which is just cocoa powder no sugar or anything
in there and then a teaspoon of maca which helps regulate your hormones but
also gives you an energy boost which is great in the coffee you know you get an
extra little zing especially in the morning and then I'm putting in a
teaspoon of coconut sugar you can omit this but I wanted to show a healthier
less refined sugar that you can use in this which is coconut sugar a teaspoon
of vanilla extract and then my favorite almond milk guys Khalifa farms is where
it's at this stuff tastes amazing and coffee
it also Frost's well and then I'm using this little handheld frother you can use
a blender but I got this water for ten dollars and it Frost's the milk without
having to like dirty a blender I love it it will be linked down below and there
you have your maca mocha cold brew it's chocolatey it's yummy
it's cold brew is delicious and lastly we're making it this vanilla mint cold
brew super refreshing for the summertime so I'm using half a cup again of our
cold brew concentrate you guys know the drill by now and then I'm adding in once
again the Khalifa farms it's just the best tasting almond milk that I can put
with coffee do you find that other almond milks piece of cardboard
sometimes I feel like that happens in coffee but anyways this one tastes
really good a little bit of vanilla frothing that up and then adding in a
few mint leaves I do end up pushing them down with like a straw after but for
presentation I want to keep them on the top but it kind of gives us a little bit
of peppermint flavor it's refreshing in the summer time it's so yummy and look
it's really pretty too so yeah those are my recipes I hope you guys enjoyed this
