How to Make Tia Maria
- In a saucepan, combine 2 cups of water, 1 ½ cups of granulated sugar, and ½ cup of strong brewed coffee. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves completely.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool completely to room temperature.
- Once cooled, stir in 1 cup of dark rum and 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract.
- Carefully pour the mixture into a clean, sterilized bottle. Seal tightly.
- Let the liqueur rest in a cool, dark place for at least 1 week, allowing the flavors to meld and develop. The longer it rests, the smoother and more delicious it will become (up to 3 weeks for optimal flavor).
