Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Water
- 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cups Instant coffee granules
- 2 tablespoons Vanilla extract
- 2 cups Vodka
Instructions
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the water and granulated sugar over medium heat.
Stir the mixture continuously until the sugar is completely dissolved, approximately 5 to 7 minutes, creating a simple syrup.
Lower the heat and gently whisk in the instant coffee granules until fully dissolved.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the coffee mixture to cool to room temperature, approximately 30 minutes.
Once cooled, stir in the vanilla extract and vodka until well combined.
Carefully pour the liqueur into clean, sterilized glass bottles or jars using a funnel if necessary.
Seal the bottles tightly and store in a cool, dark place for at least two weeks to allow the flavors to meld and develop, shaking the bottles gently every few days.
Serve the liqueur as a standalone drink, in cocktails, or as a dessert topping. Enjoy!
