Now I’m a coffee drinker.
I had some Blue Chair Bay Coconut Spiced Rum left over from the Spiced Banana Cream Cocktail I made a few weeks ago and thought it’d be awesome mixed up in a tall glass of iced coffee.
Well, I was right!
I never realized how EASY it was to cold brew iced coffee. All you do is place coffee grinds in a jar or pitcher, cover with cold water and refrigerate overnight (covered). Strain it after at least 8 hours and serve over ice. Freeze some coffee ice cubes if you want to get really serious about this cocktail.
The creamer is up to you… I just added milk to keep it simple. So if you’re craving a cocktail that will get your butt in gear with a caffeine kick, here’s your recipe!

Putting too much water and little coffee beans in the coffee maker will certainly yield a poor and “weak” brew. A general rule when brewing is to put 2 tablespoons of grounded coffee beans for every 6 ounces of water.
