Kahlua

[cruiserguy11]

I like Kahlua. And I've usually use my allotment off a ship by buying Kahlua in Mexico.

 

I found a recipe online and just made some ... it's GREEEEEAT.

 

Here she be....I'm going to rename it the 3-3-3-3 recipe.

 

3 cups of brewed coffee

3 cups of sugar

3 teaspoons of Vanilla extract (I used imitation and it still tastes GREAT)

3 cups of Vodka

 

Put the coffee into a pot and start to heat it. Add the sugar and stir it until it dissolves. Turn off heat and let the pot cool. (I put the pot into a sink full of cold water.)

Add the Vanilla (whatever kind you use)

Add the Vodka.

 

I personally can't tell the difference but I didn't have any Kahlua onhand will which to compare it...just memory of how good it is. :)

Correct me if I am wrong... but don't think that there is vodka in Kahlua:o ..but you just made some awesome Black Russians;)

I have no idea if Vodka is in the real Kahlua ... but the version I posted sure tastes like Kahlua.

 

My son made it with 151 Rum and he seems happy. Dunno why. :D

Here is my recipe for Kahlua that has been in the family for 50 years:

 

Boil 2 Cups of Water & 3 3/4 Cups sugar until clear. Add 2 Tbls Vanilla.

Mix 6 Tbls Iinstant Coffee w/ 1/2 Cup Water and add to above.

Pour into 1/2 gallon jug. Add fifth vodka.

Store for a few months. Enjoy.

 

I made this a few years ago and still have some left. It is great in hot chocolate.

 

Vodka is used as a base for flavored liquors because it adds the alcohol without adding flavor.
