What is it? Different brewing process than hot coffee. Coffee grounds soak overnight in water to extract the beans oils, sugars, and caffeine. In general it'll be less acidic and less biter than hot brewed coffee with ice in it.

My take on it...

A different flavored coffee. I enjoy cold brew a lot on a hot day. It definitely hits me harder than a regular cup of coffee. This drink may sit better with people that suffer from a sensitive stomach (due to acidity).
