How To Turn Your Hot Girl Summer Into A Cool Girl Fall
Thanks to Megan Thee Stallion we have all been gloriously basking in our Hot Girl Summer. But nonetheless, all good things must come to an end. But leaving our hot girl summer behind does not mean abandoning our confidence and strength. It is time for a cool girl fall. The easiest way to do that? Meet your newest hobby, craft, and super-power: Home-made Cold Brew Coffee.
What you do love is cold brew, but what you may have not known is that cold brew coffee is incredibly easy to make. It requires three simple tools: ground coffee, a toddy, (can be found here on Amazon) and your refrigerator. To begin with, head to the supermarket to pick out your favorite coffee grounds (probably my favorite part in the process). You have the freedom to choose your different flavors and roast. Feeling sweet that week? Go ahead and choose French vanilla! Busy week ahead? Make sure to get the extra kick you need with a caffeine heavy blend. Second, (making sure that the coffee is grounded), you will pour the fresh grounds into the toddy. After you have poured in the grounds you will then pour one cup of water per 16 ounces of coffee. Make sure to pour the water over the grounds evenly, so that all of the grounds are equally soaked. To make sure of this, pour the water out in a circular motion so you cover the entire circumference of the toddy. Afterward, put your new mixture into the fridge and leave it overnight (or at least two hours). Lastly, you’ll pull out your plug from the bottom of your toddy and let your newfound obsession drain into a container (I use a large mason jar). Voila, your journey into the luxury of cold brew is complete.
An easy to follow recipe is just one of the many benefits of cold brew. Having home-made brew will save you money and time. Never leave the house for a deluxe coffee again! The $15 you spend on coffee every week can now go towards more important funds, like clothes, clothes, or probably clothes. Additionally, having ready-made coffee in your fridge will save you so much time. It is already prepared unlike homemade hot coffee and can be poured seconds before you have to run out the door. It will be your newest breakfast staple, and yummiest pick-me-up. Never again waste time waiting in long Starbucks or Dunkin drive-throughs. Home-made cold brew is the perfect accessory for your fast-paced life.
So, as the season brings about change, add home-made cold brew to your life. Impress your friends and family when you come home over break by telling them about your new coffee connoisseur life. The leaves will begin to change as your habits do as well, this time for the better. With easily accessible cold brew, you are officially unstoppable. Live furiously through your cool-girl fall and always be prepared to take on your day with a cold-brew in hand.
