Coffee Liqueur
List of Ingredients
1 1/2 C Firmly packed light or dark brown sugar
1 C Sugar
2 C Water
1/2 C Instant coffee powder or crystals
3 C Vodka
1 1/2 T Vanilla extract
1 t Glycerine; optional
10 Whole coffee beans
Recipe
In a heavy medium sized saucepan, combine the
sugars and water. Bring to a boil over moderately
high heat, stirring occasionally. Lower the heat.
Simmer until the mixture forms a syrup, about 5 minutes.
Stir the coffee powder into the syrup with a whisk
until dissolved and the mixture is lump free.
Remove the pan from the heat. Let cool completely.
Stir in the remaining ingredients until smooth.
Funnel the mixture into a half gallon glass
bottle; drop in the whole coffee beans. Cover
tightly. Let mature for at least two weeks. Strain
out the coffee beans, if desired.
