This Summer, What’s The Secret to the Perfect Iced Coffee? It’s in the Bag!

When the summer heats up, coffee lovers crave something a little less steamy and a little more refreshing.

Iced coffee fits the bill perfectly.

For some, that means driving to the nearest chain, dropping a bundle, and leaving quality to chance.

But you can save time and money – and the planet – on a superior brew by making it at home, exactly the way you like it.

Steeped Coffee’s pre-portioned, eco-friendly coffee bags

 

Steeped Coffee’s pre-portioned, eco-friendly coffee bags allow you to steep a farm-to-cup brew nearly anywhere, sans the machine, waste, or harmful chemicals found in powdered coffee. No need to give up high-end coffee.  With a Steeped Coffee Bag and a little bit of patience, your great-tasting, ethically-sourced glass of cold summer happiness is just a few minutes away.

Steeped, Inc. is all about premium coffee with a conscious. Its proprietary single-serve brewing system features Steeped Coffee Packs (think tea bags for coffee) to deliver locally-sourced and roasted micro-batch coffee one delicious cup at a time. Nitro-sealed to preserve freshness, Steeped Coffee Packs are made with renewable and compostable materials and presented in recyclable packaging.

How to make the perfect Steeped Iced Coffee Concentrate

For each serving, you’ll need

1 Steeped Coffee Pack

1 10 oz. mug

Filtered water

Directions

  1. Heat filtered water to 205 degrees, or just below boiling
  2. Place Steeped Bag at bottom of mug
  3. Pour hot water over Steeped Bag until the mug is half full
  4. Use string to dunk Steeped Bag 20 to 30 times over 1 minute

Tips

  • To serve a crowd, make multiple batches of Concentrate. Store leftover Concentrate in the fridge.
