Iced Nitro Cold Brew With Maple Syrup
Craving a coffee that's both refreshing and indulgent? Meet our Iced Nitro Cold Brew with Maple Syrup – a game-changer in the world of cold coffee drinks. This recipe takes the smooth, velvety texture of nitro cold brew and elevates it with the rich, natural sweetness of pure maple syrup.
Inspired by the maple forests of Vermont and the cutting-edge coffee scenes of Seattle, this drink combines tradition with innovation. We use a medium-dark roast coffee, coarsely ground and steeped for 12-24 hours to create a bold, low-acid base. The nitrogen infusion adds a creamy mouthfeel without any dairy, while the maple syrup introduces complex flavors that perfectly complement the coffee's natural notes.
