BEST HOMEMADE KAHLUA
1 (12 cup) pot very strong coffee (chocolate flavored is best) 2 lbs. light brown sugar 4 to 6 tablespoons vanilla extract 1 bottle 190 proof Clear Springs or Everclear Bring coffee to a boil in dutch oven or large pot. Gradually add 2 lbs. light brown sugar and return to boil stirring constantly. Let cool until room temperature. (I add up to 1 cup of ice to cool faster and place pot in sink of cold water). When completely cool, add the vanilla and 190 (I prefer the Clear Springs). It is ready to serve. I like to fill the Clear Springs bottle first and put away to age for special occasions. I have made this recipe for many years and everyone who tries it likes it much better than the recipes with vodka. Add Vodka for Black or White Russians. Chocolate Velvet Coffee is what I like to make my Kahlua with, usually, but I have also made really good flavors with Hazelnut, French Vanilla and Chocolate Macadamia Nut. Sometimes, I like to add a little almond extract to give it an Amaretto flavor. Submitted by: Valerie Williams

Barbara Clayton (Kansas) says:

If espresso is 6-8 times stronger than drip coffee, and espresso shots are one ounce- if I picked up some shots at Starbucks, would strengthening drip coffee with a couple of shots of espresso do the job? Or three shots to 12 cups of water, a cup being only 5 ounces? I'm wondering if espresso strength is measured against 5-oz cups or 8-oz cups or ounce to ounce? Do they make espresso with any type of coffee, such as the chocolate coffee recommended? Does anyone know? For people who don't make coffee, picking up a few shots could simplify this recipe.
