What can you do to prevent iced coffee from getting watery?

To prevent the ice from watering down your coffee, make it extra strong by doubling the amount of ground coffee you put in your coffee maker. Another way to double up on the flavor is to make coffee ice cubes. Pour cooled coffee into an ice cube tray, freeze and use for your next cup of iced coffee. For an even stronger taste, make cold brew coffee.
