  • Try looking for “cold brew concentrate” it’s not really syrupy because there’s usually no sugar, but it’s meant to be diluted.

    I don’t think I’ve seen 2L containers specifically, I think I normally see it in 1qt bottles (which is roughly the same as a liter) but since you’re diluting it it works out to about the same or even more (some brands are stronger than others, and personal preference of course comes into play, but usually I think I’ve seen them call for a 1:1 ratio of concentrate to water/milk, others might be 1:3 and maybe even higher, so that 1qt might be roughly equivalent to a 2l bottle, or even a gallon (roughly 4l) jug.

    And if you add hot water, most of them make for a pretty decent cup of Joe, you don’t have to drink it cold.

    I remember one time I bought some, and my wife didn’t realize it was meant to be diluted and had been drinking it straight and was wondering why she was so jittery until I caught her pouring a full glass of it. Also solved the mystery of why we were going through it so fast.

    Chameleon cold brew is a pretty common (and I think pretty decent, though I’m no coffee snob) brand at least in my part of the states.
