I want to branch out from drinking unsweetened iced tea as my drink of choice. What brand of cold brew do you like?

We get Stok Cold Brew and add our own creamer.

Get your favorite coffee and cold brew it in coconut water. That’s my recommendation.

The Costco Kirkland has cans of cold brew. Got them last week and they are really good!

The Costco Kirkland has cans of cold brew. Got them last week and they are really good! I am hesitant to buy a lot until I've tried it. But, I'll still check it out the next time I am in Costco. Get your favorite coffee and cold brew it in coconut water. That’s my recommendation. Thanks. I'll try this! |

I like the Dunkin brand, but I think they are phasing out the cold brew bags and moving to a liquid concentrate (it’s not as good). I’ll keep buying cases of the Dunkin bags until Amazon no longer has them.
Maybe I should just keep an eye on this thread.

My DH bought Stok unsweetened bold for years. However, he is directed to lower his caffeine intake so he makes his own decaffeinated cold brew at home because regular cold brew has a higher caffeine rating than regular coffee. It is incredibly easy and a fraction of the cost of prepared cold brew, even with buying 2 lb. bags of whole bean decaffeinated coffee, which lasts him a month.

My daughter rotates between Califia brand and making her own. She also said the Trader Joes instant cold brew is surprisingly good.

Starbucks. That is the only place I have really had cold brew from and I like it. So I get either the unsweetened/unflavored Starbucks Cold Brew (which is the about the only one I can find) or if I happen to travel more than 2 hours from my house and find a Target - they usually have the Vanilla Sweet Cream cold brew - which is the flavor I like. I find mine at Walmart.
When I get the black/unsweetened - I add a generous splash of Half & Half, a couple big squirts of vanilla syrup (my DH likes Caramel Syrup) and have it over nugget ice (to me that is THE best).
I actually like what I make at home (With the Starbies)better than what they serve at the actual Starbucks. Our Starbucks is an in-store HyVee Starbucks. I never get the same tasting drink twice. I tend to order the same drinks - and they are never the same tasing. Got some Caramel Frappe's the other day and I am seriously thinking of asking for free replacements, they tasted like caramel and cream ice water. Blech.
I want to try the Stok too - that is more available around me.

We have tried a number of them but they never taste as good as doing it ourselves. I bought this jar/filter set in 2019 and we love it. We usually get the Ruta Maya medium roast beans from Costco. I'm very intrigued at the coconut water idea. Maybe we will try it this summer. |

I’m experimenting with making my own but if I’m purchasing Stok is my favorite. I get the regular or extra bold - green and purple labels I think.

Does Stok come in single serving sizes bottles? I only see big bottles in the store. I’ll probably go buy one tomorrow during my shopping run.
Someone mentioned Califa. I used to buy their almond milk all the time. Maybe I’ll try theirs too.
