Homemade Kahlua Recipes

Steps:

• Boil water, coffee, sugar.
• Simmer for 3 hours (stirring frequently).
• Let cool and add vanilla and vodka.
• Bottle and cap tightly.

Steps:

• Combine the brown sugar, granulated sugar and water in a small sauce pan. Simmer for 10 to 15 minutes until sugar is dissolved.
• Remove from the heat. Stir in the coffee. Allow to cool completely.
• Pour into a large plastic container with a lid. Add the vodka, vanilla flavoring and vanilla bean.
• Cover and let stand for two to three weeks or until fully aged. Kahlua, when properly stored, can last safely for up to a few years.

Steps:

• Dissolve sugar in 4 cups water in a pan over medium heat; boil for 10 minutes; set aside.
• Dissolve coffee granules in 1 cup water in a pan over medium heat; boil for 8 minutes.
• Combine sugar mixture and coffee mixture; cool to room temperature.
• Stir vodka and vanilla into cooled coffee mixture.
• Store in sealed, decorative bottles.

Steps:

• Combine water and instant coffee in a pot; bring to a boil. Stir light brown sugar and dark brown sugar into coffee, reduce heat, and simmer, stirring every 15 minutes, for 3 hours. Remove from heat and cool completely.
• Pour coffee mixture into a clean, large glass jar. Add grain alcohol, vanilla extract, and vanilla bean; cover with a tight-fitting lid. Let sit in a dark place, shaking occasionally, for 1 month. Divide into bottles, leaving a piece of vanilla bean in each.

Steps:

• Mix sugar, water and coffee together and bring to a slow boil. (Be sure to watch this as it may boil over).
• Turn heat down and simmer 1 hour.
• Remove from heat and let cool. Cover with plastic wrap.
• Let sit for 12 hours then remove wrap. (It will pick up film from the top).
• Add vodka and vanilla, stir well.
• Bottle it or add it to your favorite drink!

Steps:

• Bring water and sugar to a boil.
• Add to coffee crystals just enough water to dissolve them.
• Add coffee to water and sugar and boil for 5 minutes, being careful not to let it boil over.
• Cool completely, then add vanilla and vodka.
• Mix well.

Steps:

• Bring sugar and water to a boil.
• Stir until sugar is completely dissolved.
• Add coffee.
• Let cool to room temperature.
• Add vanilla and grain alcohol.
• Bottle and let set for at least one week, and preferably a month or longer, before serving.
• Note: I have also had it after allowing it to age for 15 minutes, and it was still pretty good, but definitely a little rough around the edges.

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.
