KAHLUA

Steps:

• Dissolve the coffe crystals in one cup of the water.
• Bring the remaining water to a boil and dissolve the sugar in it.
• Add the coffee to the sugar solution and heat almost to a boil.
• Add the alcohol and decant into dark containers (this makes 7-8 cups; a fifth (750 mL) is just over 3 cups, so about 2 1/2 750 mL bottles- or just double it, make 5 bottles, and give some gift bottles).
• Break the bean into several pieces and divide between the bottles.
• Seal the bottles tightly and let them stand for 30 days before serving.

KAHLUA

Steps:

• 1. Boil sugar and 3 cups water over medium heat until thick and syrupy. Remove from heat and cool slightly.
• 2. Combine boiling water, coffee and vanilla. Add to syrup.
• 3. After the mixture has cooled at least to room temperature add vodka. We store it in vodka bottles and store it in the fridge, although I have never heard of it going bad on the counter.
• Note: When I double this recipe I use a half gallon of vodka and just enjoy the extra alcohol content.
