How to Make Sugar Free Homemade Kahlua

  1. In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of strong brewed coffee, 1 cup of vodka, 1/2 cup of water, and 1/4 cup of instant coffee granules.
  2. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until all the coffee granules are completely dissolved. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil for 2 minutes. Reduce heat to low, cover the pan, and let it simmer for an additional minute or remove from heat and let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld.
  4. Remove from heat and let cool completely. Stir in your preferred sugar substitute to taste (approximately 1/4 cup to 1/2 cup depending on your sweetener and desired level of sweetness). Start with a smaller amount and add more to taste.
  5. Once the mixture has completely cooled, strain it through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a clean bottle. Store in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours to allow the flavors to fully develop before serving. Enjoy responsibly!
