What it is

How people cook with it
This concentrate is a quick way to enjoy a café-style iced coffee without needing to brew coffee or add sweeteners and flavorings separately.
- Mix with water for a quick iced coffee
- Blend into milk for a creamy treat
- Add to smoothies for a coffee kick
- Use as a base for coffee cocktails
To prepare, simply combine the coffee concentrate with cold water or milk in a glass filled with ice. The recommended ratio is typically one part concentrate to one part liquid, but you can adjust this to your personal preference for strength and sweetness. Stir well to ensure the concentrate is fully incorporated. For a richer taste, substitute milk or a dairy-free alternative for water. It can also be used in blended drinks or as a flavoring agent in desserts.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike regular brewed coffee, this concentrate is already brewed and sweetened, saving time. It also contains a distinct caramel flavor, which is not present in plain coffee. The liquid form allows for instant dissolving in cold liquids, unlike instant coffee granules.
Who it is for
