Make Your Own Kahlua!

Everybody likes Kahlua, but who wants to pay for high fructose corn syrup and cheap rum? I decided to make my own version using simple ingredients.  The result was a successful copy of Kahlua, that even the biggest Kahlua fans couldn't tell the difference. 


The Ingredients

You will need:
  • 1 Cup of coffee
  • 1 Tbls pure vanilla extract
  • 1/4 Cup of organic maple syrup
  • 1/4 Cup of organic agave nectar
  • 1 1/2 Cups of rum
  • Empty bottle
  • Measuring cup 
  • Funnel (optional)

Mix all of the ingredients into the empty bottle, the order doesn't really matter. 

Once all of the ingredients are in the bottle, shake well to ensure that it is mixed completely.
