Notes
Coffee Strength: The strength of your coffee can greatly impact the flavor of your iced coffee. If you prefer a stronger coffee taste, consider using a dark roast or brewing the coffee stronger than usual.
Sweetness Level: Adjust the amount of simple syrup based on your preference for sweetness. Start with a small amount and add more as needed.
Cold Brew Option: For a smoother taste, use cold brew coffee instead of regular brewed coffee. It’s less acidic and can be more flavorful when served cold.
NOTE: Simple Syrup is typically found in the beverage or cocktail mixers section. It's a common ingredient for cocktails, so it's often stocked near items like club soda, tonic water, and other mixers.
