I'll go for that recipe! I like white russians (the drink )
Sorry Mark, didn't see your request, so, here is the recipe:
Coffee Liqueur
Tia Maria or Kahlua
Yield: 1 1/2 liters (may be halved)
2 c Sugar
1 c Water
⅔ cup Espresso, freshly brewed or a quality instant coffee
15 Coffee beans (whole and roasted)
1½ cups Alcohol 95%
1½ cups Water
1½ cups Rum for Tia-Maria or Brandy for Kahlua
2 ts Vanilla extract or 1 Vanilla bean (5-8 cm)
Combine water and sugar, and bring to a full boil. Allow to cool thoroughly. Pour into the container. Add alcohol, rum, espresso, coffee beans (optional but will add a fuller flavor), and vanilla extract. Store in a dark place for 3 weeks. Strain and filter. Ready to serve.
Since this thread, every evening I make myself a drink with my home-made Tia-Maria.
Cheers
