Answer 3

This recipe is over 20 years old from a co-worker. Make sure to use a good quality brand of vodka. And use Kava Instant Coffee! It has less acid than other brands. (When I make it, I slit the vanilla bean before adding to liquid.)

KAHLUA: (makes 1/2 gallon)

1 quart vodka
1 oz. instant coffee (KAVA)
4 cups bar sugar (super fine)
1 vanilla bean
distilled water

Add instant coffee to 1 cup of boiling water and stir until dissolved. While water is still hot, add 4 cups sugar and stir until dissolved. When mixture is cool, add 1 quart vodka and stir. Pour mixture into 1/2 gallon container. Add cool water (recommend boiled or distilled water) to bring level to 1/2 gallon. Add vanilla bean. Cap and let stand for 2 weeks.

Answer 4

By rights Kahlua is made with Alcohol and not Vodka or Rum

Answer 5

flavored essence + liqour.
