How to make cold brew coffee at home as good as Starbucks or Costa for a fraction of the price

Whether cold brew is something you'd pick up on your regular coffee run or something you're trying for the first time because of the warm weather, there's lots to love about the simple brew. Costa and Starbucks have bought back the drink, which has increased in popularity in recent years, but if you want to enjoy a version of it at home it's arguably the easiest of all the barista-made coffee to make yourself.

You'd don't even need any fancy equipment. During the winter you might have a posh coffee machine or grinder to make your favourite caffeine fix, but at its simplest you can make delicious cold brew coffee through the summer for minimal outlay.

Cold brew is made, as the name suggests, cold. At no point in the process do you need to even boil the kettle. Instead you make a concentrate with a higher coffee to water ratio than ordinary coffee, leave it in the fridge to steep and then, when it's ready, mix with water, milk and any chosen flavourings whenever you fancy a glass.
