Cold Brew Coffee

I am always in the mood to try new coffee techniques, and I saw this article on Facebook by Food 52 and tried it earlier this week. I thought it was super yummy, so smooth (this could also be from the local, fresh coffee beans) and Jacob said it didn't even taste like coffee. I put heavy cream in it the next day but regret it because it took away from the pure flavor of the coffee. I also didn't have any cinnamon so I added a little nutmeg instead.
