Unexpected depth in Cold Brew — took time to notice

I drank Cold Brew for months before I started noticing what was actually going on in it. Once I slowed down and paid attention — prepared over ice rather than rushing — the freshness of the base ingredient became something I actively appreciated. The digestive benefit I'd been getting was just part of it.

There's a difference between drinking something and actually tasting it. Cold Brew rewards the latter more than you'd expect from something so widely consumed.
