  • Let cool completely.
  • Add vodka and vanilla, stirring well.
  • Bottle in dark bottles, and store tightly capped for 2 weeks before using.
  • Use as you would the commercial variety.
  • We like it this way: add 1 jigger Kahlua and 1 jigger half-n-half to a mug and fill with hot coffee. Heavenly!
Comments
A perfectly wonderful replacement for expensive store-bought coffee-flavored liqeuer.
