HOMEMADE KAHLUA FROM SCRATCH (Coffee Liqueur)

1-1/2 TBS instant coffee
1-1/2 cups white sugar
2 cups water
2 cups vodka
1-1/2 TBS vanilla extract

Mix the water, coffee and sugar together in a covered saucepan over high heat.  Bring mixture to a boil and continue to boil for 10 minutes.  Make sure it doesn’t boil over. 

Remove mixture from the heat and let cool for five minutes.  Add vodka and vanilla.  Stir and pour into the empty 750 ml bottle you want to keep it in. 

Be certain that you use a covered saucepan when making this drink.  The alcohol will coil away if the solution is not covered when it gets hot.

Close bottles tightly and keep in a cool dark place for at least 30 days.
