After reading Iced Coffee? No Sweat in the New York Times, I decided to give it a try.
I used a glass tea-pot with a removable infuser into which I put four scoops of coffee. Then I left it on the back porch for the day.
Result? Absolutely better. Delicious with no trace of bitterness.
Speaking of iced coffee, why don't people in the South drink it? Now I have nothing against iced tea which I drink year round, but iced coffee in the summer is delicious too and just the thing when you need an extra boost. Or with beignets.
Do you have any idea how hard it is to get iced coffee in New Orleans?
You would think they would know, but no, I have to explain to waiters who say they have none to bring me a tall glass of ice and a cup of coffee.
I expect only the mermaid will convince them.
