You can have true cold brew, which is when the coffee is made using a cold method rather than hot water or you can cool down regular brew coffee and then pour it over ice. There seems to be a taste distinction between the two brewing methods. I happen to prefer the latter.
I brew my hot coffee in the morning and then let it cool down, on the counter, before transferring it to a container and placing it in the fridge. When I get ready to have a cup, I pour it over ice to maximize the cold. I usually like drinking it after my lunch.
You can drink the coffee black or add cream. I like adding goat milk to it, but I have started to drink it black as well. Black, cold coffee tastes great. The cold really enhances its nutty flavor and eliminates all bitterness. It also leaves a pleasant aftertaste.
