Homemade Kahlua
This is not a recipe for the faint of heart! I mean, seriously 100 proof vodka and it takes 30 days to “brew” but let me tell you … this is well worth the wait. I know, I know, you won’t have this ready for the holidays. But just think about sitting down to a nice cup of Kahlua-laced coffee in front of your fire in January when (dare I say this) there might be some snow on the ground. Start your batch today!
