Kahlua Recipe #33535
This is a friend's recipe for Kahlua - it will make several bottles. The alcohol content works out to about 16% (32 proof). A note - this does need to steep for about a month, so if you're planning on making it, start early.

25 min | 15 min prep
7 -8 cups
- 2 ounces instant coffee crystals
- 4 cups hot water
- 4 cups granulated sugar
- 750 ml vodka
- 1 vanilla bean
- 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.
