Serves 1 cup
Cold brew

Ice: A full glass

You need

Ready-to-drink cold brew · 120 ml
Lemon · 1
Honey · 10–15 ml
Ice cubes

Method

Make cold brew as in the Cold brew recipe and keep it chilled.
Wash the lemon, cut 2 thin slices and remove the seeds. Squeeze the rest for about 15 ml of juice.
Stir the honey into the lemon juice in the glass until dissolved, before adding ice: honey barely dissolves once cold.
Fill the glass with ice and add the 2 lemon slices.
Slowly pour 120 ml of cold brew on top, stir and drink straight away.

Tip: Drink it as soon as it is made: lemon slices left in the coffee turn it bitter from the peel. For fizz, use 60 ml of cold brew concentrate and top up with 60 ml of cold soda water.
