Southern Cold Brew Carts

Grady's Cold Brew Brings the Taste of New Orleans to Brooklyn

— September 25, 2015 — Lifestyle
Grady's Cold Brew -- a coffee company that is known for its Southern-inspired blend -- brings the taste of New Orleans to Brooklyn. It's cold brew cart opened in New York this summer and is a favorite among fans of the iced beverage.

Grady's Cold Brew is hand-bottled in Brooklyn but makes its product freshly available for those on the go. The coffee company's cold brew cart is frequented by New Yorkers with an appreciation for quality products.

Each batch of the company's cold brew is made with freshly roasted coffee, water, spices and ground chicory. After being brewed in water overnight, the drink's coffee grounds are then extracted using a two-step filtration process. The concentrated result can then be mixed with milk and one's choice of sweetener. Though Grady's Cold Brew first gained attention for its bottled product, its introduction of an accessible retail cart appeals to millennial urbanites with an appreciation for authentic coffee.
