    KAHL�A (Mexican Coffee Liqueur)

    Source of Recipe

    Source: Oregonian's Food Day

    Recipe Introduction

    Kahl�a is a complex liqueur. We do not recommend using brown sugar or just vodka. We think you will agree this recipe is an accurate resemblance of classic Kahl�a. It's ready in 2 to 4 months.

    List of Ingredients

    2 C. water
    1/4 C. plus 2 tsp. instant coffee granules or powder (use a freshly opened jar of coffee for best results)
    3 1/2 C. granulated sugar
    1 vanilla bean, split
    2 3/4 C. vodka
    3/4 C. brandy
    1/4 tsp. chocolate extract
    1 drop red food coloring

    Recipe

    Heat water in medium saucepan. When hot, add coffee granules and stir until dissolved. Add sugar and vanilla bean, stirring well to combine.

    Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Immediately reduce heat so a very low boil is maintained for 1 minute. Remove from heat and cool to lukewarm.

    Pour vodka and brandy into container. Add the cooled coffee mixture and chocolate extract. Stir well. Cap and let age in a cool, dark place for 3 weeks
