A BLONDE VINTAGE

For as long as I can recall, every year around Thanksgiving my mom would whip up a batch of Kahlua for hostess gifts. And since homemade kahlua recipes seem to be all the rage right now, of course, I reached out to my mom for her tried and true homemade Kahlua recipe to share with you. Perfect for splashing into coffee or shaking up into a cocktail, it’s easy to make and also makes the perfect gift!

I personally love using this recipe in this frothy and delicious Espresso Martini Recipe which is the perfect cocktail for the upcoming holidays! Serve as an after dinner drink alongside dessert. I promise your whole family will love it! Cheers friends!

Homemade Kahlua Recipes for the Holidays

HOMEMADE KAHLUA RECIPE

– 4 cups water

– 1 cup instant coffee (I love this organic kind!)

– 1 750 ml bottle white Rum or Everclear

– 4 cups organic brown sugar

Combine water and instant coffee in a pot and bring to a boil. Stir the brown sugar into coffee, reduce heat, and simmer, stirring every 15 minutes, for 3 hours. Please note, the longer it simmers, the thicker it will become. Next remove from the heat and cool completely before adding in your Rum or Everclear, vanilla extract, and vanilla bean. Cover with a tight fitting lid and let sit in a dark place for 2 – 3 weeks. Divide into bottles and enjoy!

If you love making cocktails and are looking for another a great recipe to use your Kahlua for, try this Espresso Martini Recipe!
