To make cold brew coffee, combine coarsely ground coffee beans with cold water in a pitcher or jar. Add this oat milk beverage to the mixture, typically in a ratio that suits your taste preference. Stir gently to ensure all grounds are saturated. Cover the container and let it steep in the refrigerator for at least 12 to 24 hours. After steeping, strain the coffee concentrate through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth. Serve the cold brew over ice, and add more of this oat milk to taste for a creamy, smooth finish.

It aims to integrate seamlessly with the coffee's flavor profile, avoiding any chalkiness or separation that can sometimes occur with other plant-based milks in cold preparations.
