Our best roast if you ask Master Roaster Dan. Skookumchuck River is as dark and delicious as any French Roast in the world. Bold and strong with deep dark chocolate undertones and a light hint of smokiness it is something all French Roast lovers must try before they die. The Skookumchuck River originates in the Snoqualmie National Forest in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains. It joins the Chehalis River and flows with it into the Pacific Ocean. In Chinook Indian Jargon the word 'skookum' means strong and the word 'chuck' means water.
The absolute best way to make coffee ice cubes is by using cold brewed coffee. Firstly, cold brew is strong, concentrated coffee which will help keep your iced coffee drink taste great when the coffee ice cubes melt. Secondly, cold brewed coffee is smoother and less acidic than regular coffee so when your coffee ice cubes melt, you can avoid that bitterness that comes with regular coffee ice cubes. Step 1, take your homemade cold brew or purchased cold brew. Step 2, grab a reusable ice tray. Step 3, pour your cold brew into the ice tray, leaving a little space at the top so that the liquid has room to expand. Step 4, freeze for a minimum of 6 hours unless you want to make an iced coffee slushy!
Now you can get crafty with your coffee ice cubes by adding other flavors or cream to them. Some people add cinnamon, nutmeg, or even cayenne pepper to give their iced coffee drinks a little something extra!
