Iced Caramel Cold Brew

Cold-brew concentrate supplies a round, low-acid base, and scratch caramel syrup adds cooked-sugar bitterness as well as sweetness. Diluting concentrate before adding milk prevents a harsh first sip. A narrow caramel ribbon inside the glass is enough; a heavy coating overwhelms coffee and makes the last inch syrupy.
