Ingredients
- 4 cups strong brewed coffee (cold)
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 2 cups vodka or rum
- 2 vanilla beans, split (or 2 tsp vanilla extract)
Method
- In a large saucepan, combine the brewed coffee and sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring continuously until the sugar is fully dissolved. Remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature.
- Once cooled, stir in the vodka or rum.
- If using vanilla beans, scrape out the seeds and add both the seeds and the pods to the mixture. If using vanilla extract, add and stir it in.
- Transfer the mixture to a glass bottle or jar and seal tightly. Store it in a cool, dark place for at least one week, gently shaking the bottle daily.
- After the infusion period, strain the mixture to remove the vanilla pods and any sediment. Transfer the cleared liquid back to the bottle for storage.
