DIY Iced Coffee

So it's summer now and if you're like me, you love iced coffee but hate how overpriced it is at coffee shops and not nearly as good as it could be. Anyone else completely obsessed with this stuff? Check out my DIY and enjoy $0.25/glass iced coffee:

Your method requires waiting 12 hours to steep cold in a french press.

Why not just make a pot of regular coffee and stick it in the fridge for 12 hours?

WTF? What's wrong with just putting hot coffee into a cup of ice and enjoy?

BTW, iced coffee at Dunkin Donut's isn't much more than hot.

One of the 7-Eleven's by me tried the coffee Slurpee once. Apparently it didn't fare well as it wasn't there for long.
