I don't drink "pop", but I drink lots and lots of "soda"--soda water that is. Sometimes I drink it with a chunk of lime or lemon, or a glug of some exotic juice, but mostly I drink it as part of my daily "power coffee":
1 pound (yeah right! Anyone notice that coffee doesn't come by the pound anymore?) organic, fair trade, shade-grown coffee Dump this in one of those funnel-style concentrate makers, the ones with a little rubber plug and a felt filter. Fill to the top with cold water, slowly allowing the top grounds to become wet. Let this brew for several hours, preferably overnight. Then pull the stopper while holding the funnel over a pitcher and set the funnel down onto the pitcher to drain. If your coffeecomes pre-ground, there may be fine grounds that plug the filter--just scoop this silt off with a spoon as the coffee concentrate drains. Okay, now you have very smooth, very clear, very delicious coffee concentrate that you can use straight as strong brew, dilute with water and heat for a single cup, pour over ice with half & half and organic sugar or my fave--POWER COFFEE: freeze your favorite long pint glass in the freezer. I keep three in my freezer at a time. When icily frozen and frosty, pour into it a can of cold soda water or selzer. Add coffee concentrate to taste and top with your choice of cow or soy-based whitener and sweetener. Recycle the can!
