Stok Cold Brew Bold & Smooth Coffee Concentrate
What it is
This is a coffee concentrate made using a cold brewing process. Cold brewing involves steeping coffee grounds in cold water for an extended period, typically 12 to 24 hours. This method extracts the coffee's flavor and caffeine without the heat, resulting in a smoother, less acidic taste profile compared to traditional hot brewing. The concentrate is designed to be diluted with water or milk before serving, offering a convenient way to enjoy cold brew coffee at home.
