In this free mixology lesson Clint will teach you how to make your own homemade Coffee Liquor. This is great for White Russians or a Milwaukee signature the Milwaukee Bulldog. Let us know what you think.

This is great if you want to store a large volume of coffee liqueur to keep on hand. If you need to make some a small amount on the fly for one drink, just pour a shot of quality espresso into some aged rum. Then add simple syrup to taste (agave nectar would be perfect, as it dissolves brilliantly). You can then use it in your regular mixer recipes (e.g. Mudslides, Russians, Granitas, etc).
Sir can you please tell how much the syrup added for this
I've made homemade coffee liqueur several times. I use less water than used here, but I also brew extremely strong coffee and add that to the water and sugar (instead of adding coffee grounds). When it all cools, then I add the vodka and the vanilla. I've used it right away...and there are no messy coffee grounds to strain out.

Your recipe sounds like a spiked iced coffee, not really coffee liqueur. But whatever floats your boat . . . it does sound a lot simpler for having some fun with coffee. ;)
How much vodka?
Got a trip report for you. I went ahead and tried to make your recipe, but for low carb. I used Truvia and it wasn't the same ratio... I looked it up for what amount of Truvia I should use for 2.5 cups of sugar (I made half the amount you did) and used that instead. It sat for a full month and I just bottled it today. I had a little too much for the bottle and had to pour myself some to test out today (at noon, nice). It's actually very good!
If you read the label of Kahlua it says RUM not vodka so why use it to make your own??
Rehorst vodka is excellent. Comes from Milwaukee WI, But you should be using RUM.
Yes Daniel you can. A coffee liqueur is just coffee and alcohol. It can be any alcohol you like to get whatever flavor you like. Kahlua is made with rum. Many home made coffee liqueur recipes use vodka. Whiskey would probably make a pretty interesting one, but I haven't tried that myself.
Sean F Gallagher Blended Canadian Whiskey is all I use for my kahula. It goes down smoothe, isn't overbearing like vodka and makes a very nice drink.
thats to cool someone who shares a recipy, in stead of trying to make a friggen doller on it , im gonna try it dude, i love kahlua
I wonder if you can use Date Sugar instead of regular sugar. Looks amazing to brush into cake rounds of multi-tier creams. Oh so nice.
I also add 5 shots of Everclear to make it stronger.
QUESTION: Why not put the coffee in with the water and sugar while it's heating? Wouldn't that make a nice strong product?
He already said, it kills the flavour of the vanilla :)
+Georgie Bufton Yes, but if he let that solution cool before adding the vanilla it would be fine, no?
How would this turn out if it had no sugar in it? I'm curious because I'm usually low carb and very rarely have sugar. If it's only to make it sweeter than black coffee, I don't mind too much since I almost never drink coffee any way other than black. Otherwise I guess I could maybe just use a sugar substitute like Truvia instead.
I have access to Turkish coffee (pretty much like espresso). I am going to make my kahlua with that, but what about brewing it with the sugar and water? It is a very fine powder coffee. THANKS! Great video!
why in fridge?
I would go with brewing coffee (strong) and adding less water add sugar while hot. when cool add vanilla and vodka (see Marilyn).
You're not suppose to att the vodka while it's hot.
@pouryourpoison
Thanks I've bought some Vodka so I'm gonna make a batch. I just wish I had a pot that big! I'll look up your video for the White Russian too, thanks again!
Do you have to keep this in the fridge? can I keep it in a cool place instead??
Flexible recipe! Thanks.
I make mine like Marilyn, but I use brown sugar. Yum
it's perfectly fine.
can it be stored in the fridge for a month in a plastic container?
Straining is a royal arse pain!
Tips?
So it seems you can do a low carb one using Truvia (best artificial sweetener to use anyway). I haven't had Kahlua in a while due to the diet, but it doesn't seem too different to me.
Just thought you'd appreciate the results. :)
@0216pelon
I doubt it matters mate, Vodka is Vodka, within consideration (never use Vodkat HAHA its like flavoured water). I'm just gonna use Smirnoff cos it seems to be best you can get in that price range. Other stuff like Absolutes just too expensive and it would cost far less to just buy a bottle of coffee licquer.
Hy. I have one question. A bottle of vodka has 750ml / 3 cups. If I mix 3 cups of vodka(80proof) with 13cups of simple syrup. What will be the proof of mine coffee liquor? about 10? Isn't that too little, or have I made a wrong calculation? Thanks a lot! :)
@pouryourpoison Thanks a lot. Your summer coffee drink sounds like a Smith & Kearnes...never had it, thought it sounded like an odd combination (mostly seltzer + coffee).
I'm still curious how it would turn out if one used a sweetener such as Truvia or Splenda... someday I may try it, will have to remember to mention it here.
--Also I can't help but noticing that the container you use is one I sell at the retail store I part time at. Never really considered those for liquor infusion!
Thanks I wanted to make a white russian, but I've never even heard of Kahlua (I dont think you can get it in the UK, but there must be an equivalent).
That’s what a White Russian is
Thanks.
This is one of the better "REAL" Kahlua recipes!
Pay no attention to the Whiskey, Rum, Grain alcohol, glycerine, an so on recipes.
They are in the coffee liquors category, Home brew hooch, is more like it!
There is some crazy scary recipes on You Tube, This one wont kill you when
you want to make Colorado bulldogs, or White Russians!
have you ever read the lebel of a Kahlua bottle ?? it says rum... lol...
Skip to the extreme and use Bustelo form the can!
Hey i don't wanna use vodka or rum . can i still make this kahlúa without using it . ?
+Ambeey sj
I don't think so . . . if you don't use booze, then you'll be just making sweeten coffee. LOL!
Ambeey sj- ummm you mean coffee with sugar? No one is stopping you but I wouldn’t call it Kahlua at that point.
Yeah, it's called a coffee with sugar in it. 🤣
Yes, you can make a very good non-alcoholic Kahlua: 1/2 cup water, 3/4 cup sugar, 1-2 tablespoons instant coffee, 1/2 cup dark corn syrup, 1-2 tsp vanilla extract, 1 tablespoon molasses, 1 tsp almond extract. Heat up the first 3 ingredients until dissolved then cool and add remaining ingredients, stirring well. The molasses and almond add the undertones that would have come from the alcohol (rum in the original Kahlua). It's great with milk or even over ice with a bit of half and half. And No--it is NOT the same as coffee with sugar!
can you use rum or whiskey for this instead?
Actual Kahlua uses rum, not vodka. So I think if you want authentic, go with rum.
Grain of coffee...ROFL! I'll have to post this on my coffee forum.
Do you feel good, when you try to belittle someone on a public forum? You face and bangs? ROFLMAO
A friend of mine gifted me Kahlúa, but I haven't still tasted it. Foolishness!! =D
Anyone know how many ml in a cup? Obviously will differ from cup to cup!
There are 236.588 ml. in one US 8 fluid ounce cup. A cup of sugar weighs 200 grams.
rum not vodka
airtight Mason jars + not in the refrigerator = faster.
turkish coffe is FAR FAR FAR different than espresso.
sugar increases alcohol
Not
pls stop doing this /kahlua
WRONG! This is why You tube is so deceitful.
You never been a bartender have you! OMG you would make peps sick!
Look up, How to make Colorado Bulldogs, White Russians.
Then go look up liquors that do not mix well! LOL How old are you?
