Method
 

Brew Cold Brew Coffee
  1. In a large jar, combine coarsely ground coffee with cold water, using a ratio that suits your taste. Stir gently to ensure all coffee grounds are submerged, then cover the jar and refrigerate for at least 12 hours.

  2. Remove from heat once it has a nutty aroma and developed a deep golden color.
Mix in Maple Syrup
  1. Allow the browned butter to cool slightly before mixing it with pure maple syrup in the saucepan, stirring well.
Assemble the Drink
  1. Fill a tall glass with ice cubes. Pour in the prepared cold brew coffee, then drizzle the brown butter and maple syrup mixture over it.
  2. Stir the drink, ensuring the flavors meld together.
Add Creaminess
  1. Pour your choice of milk or cream into the glass, swirling it with the cold brew mixture.
Garnish
  1. Top with whipped cream if desired and sprinkle with cinnamon for added warmth.
