How to Make 16 Oz Coffee Liqueur
- Place 1 vanilla bean, split and scraped, into your coffee carafe.
- Brew 16 oz of strong dark roast coffee. Allow to cool completely.
- Pour the cooled coffee back into the coffee maker and re-brew through the same grounds for a more concentrated flavor.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the double-brewed coffee, 4 oz vodka, 2 oz granulated sugar, and 1 oz molasses. Stir until the sugar is fully dissolved.
- Pour the mixture into a clean, airtight bottle.
- Let the liqueur sit in a cool, dark place for two days, allowing the flavors to meld.
- After two days, strain the liqueur through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth (optional, for a smoother texture).
- Clean your coffee pot thoroughly.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
