Homemade Coffee Liqueur
Who knew that making coffee liqueur could be so easy?
We’ve put together this simple recipe for you. Try it out, but don’t be afraid to experiment. You can always try different spirits like rum or whisky, go on…go crazy!
Homemade coffee liqueur
The ingredients you will need for making coffee liqueur are:
-120ml Water
-100g raw brown sugar (the chimps used demerara sugar)
-230ml Vodka
-40g Coarsely Ground Two Chimps Coffee
-½ Vanilla Bean Split
-Something to store your liqueur in, such as an empty bottle or jar
Steps for homemade coffee liqueur:
Add the water and sugar to a pan. Simmer until the sugar has dissolved. You have just created sugar syrup.
Combine the syrup, vodka, and vanilla together in an empty bottle or jar.
Add your coffee grounds.
Give your jar a gentle shake to mix all of your ingredients together.
Cover your concoction and leave at room temperature for a day or so.
After your homemade coffee liqueur has had time to infuse, grab a coffee filter and strain your liqueur into another container. And that’s it BOOOOOM! You have made your very own coffee liqueur.
We told you it was easy- and so delicious too.
Mix this with cold brew (read our guide for how to make cold brew coffee), the soft drink of your choice, make alcoholic milkshakes or use this recipe to become the master of cocktail making.
