Method
1
Prepare the coffee : Combine coarse ground coffee with room temperature filtered water in a large jar or cold brew maker
2
Steep : Stir gently and let steep in refrigerator for 12 hours
3
Strain : Filter through fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth to remove grounds
4
Make flavor base : In a small bowl, whisk together maple syrup, caramel sauce, and sea salt until smooth
5
Assemble : Fill glass with ice, add 1/2 cup cold brew concentrate, stir in 1-2 tablespoons of the salted caramel maple mixture
6
Finish : Top with milk or cream to taste and stir gently
7
Garnish : Drizzle extra caramel sauce on top and sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt
Barista note: Taste before adjusting — a small change in grind, dose, ratio, or time usually makes the biggest difference.
