PREPARATION
Please read on in advance to ensure you have all the required equipment.
COLD BREW COFFEE
To prepare the cold brew coffee, let the coffee infuse in cold water for about 12 hours.
Then filter it using a cloth or paper filter, which you have previously soaked in water and squeezed dry (a fine or large mesh strainer gives two different results, to suit different tastes).
Take 200 ml (6.7fl oz) of the straight cold brew coffee and add 200 ml (6.7fl oz) of water.
Pour 150 g (5.3oz) of prepared black cherry lemonade and 100 g (3.5oz) of diluted cold brew into each glass.
CHERRY LEMONADE
Pour the bottled lemonade together with the black cherry syrup into a large pitcher and mix well.
Fill a glass with shaved ice and black cherry pieces.
Pour 150 g (5.3oz) of black cherry lemonade and 100 g (3.5oz) of diluted cold brew into each glass.
Enjoy!
