Step 1

If you haven't already, you'll need to make the cold brew. I let mine soak for 16-20 hours. I use 4 oz (1/2 cup) of coffee beans and grind them fresh for the best flavor. Mix this with ~4 cups of water.

Step 2

Strain the grounds out of the liquid after the soak is done.

Step 3

In a sealable container, mix together the half and half, vanilla extract, and maple syrup.

Step 4

Mix vigorously with a spoon, or if you can screw the lid tight, give it a good shake.

Step 5

In a glass start pour the cold brew coffee, water, and cream. Mix together. If you like less creamy, sweet coffee, use 2 tablespoons of the creamer to start. Add more to taste. Top with ice and enjoy. (I find that 4 tablespoons is enough to get the Starbucks flavor), but go off your own taste.

Step 6

The remaining sweet cream can be stored in the fridge for 5 days.
