1. Straight Black Cold Brew

If you love the bold and original taste of coffee, you will love black cold brew. Cold brew is not the same as conventional iced coffee. It has a smoother finish due to the brewing process that lowers the acidity and enhances the rich flavors of the coffee beans. Cold brew is a coffee drink that is perfect for those that love true coffee. Since there is no added sugar or sweeteners, the distinct characteristics of the beans are in the coffee. Cold brew is good to drink on a warm afternoon. You can also drink it as a refreshing start to your day. You can add cream to the black cold brew if you want. However, many coffee drinkers recommend that you drink it without cream and sugar so you can enjoy the strong, exciting, and great taste of the drink.
