In reply to Sharon. Hi Sharon- You make the green coffee extract from the green beans and water. I'm sorry for any confusion! Once you've infused the green coffee beans into the water, that's your extract. :)

In the recipe it’s called green tea extract- then it’s calling for green coffee beans? I’m confused? Help!
For the Green Coffee Extract:
1 quart cold water
1/4 pound green coffee beans unroasted

Make the Green Tea Extract:
Add the beans to a scrupulously clean spice or coffee grinder, pulse the grinder about 10 times just to break up the beans a little. Empty the beans into a half-gallon glass canning jar or another similarly sized container with a tight fitting lid. Pour the cold water over the beans,

I used Ethiopian coffee beans. Are there better varieties. Doesn’t taste in these amounts exactly like Starbucks

In reply to Ariel Mathews. It may be that you got a bum bag of beans, Ariel. I'm sorry it didn't work out for you!

I wish I’d known that green coffee tastes super gross and has this almost cumin-like aftertaste that’s really tough to deal with. I wanted to save some money and cut down on my plastic use from starbucks by making it at home, but it tastes gross. Nothing like the Starbucks version 🙁

In reply to Jackie. It was absolutely, incontrovertibly, 100%, indispensably necessary. (P.S. You’re publicly complaining about a recipe that I paid/spent my time to develop and give you for free on a website I pay to maintain on the internet. Even if you’re not thankful, you can at least exhibit good enough sense to use the “Jump to Recipe” button [also provided!] and just not say anything.)

Was the billion page long story of your life really necessary ?
