While at Explorer, we always use our Explorer Cold Brew Concentrate to enjoy our favorite cold brew beverages at home, we understand that you might want to try your hand at making it yourself. Fair warning: it’s not as simple as you might think. It can be hard to get a consistent flavor profile - trust us, we’ve spent a lot of time cold brewing! But here’s our recommended approach if you’re looking to truly make some yourself at home.
