Here is a recipe for Coffee Liquer that is the best I have ever tried. Put sugar in glass gallon jar. Add instant coffee to the 2 cups boiling water and then add that to the sugar. Add vodka and brandy. Slit vanilla bean down the middle and add that to the mixture in the jar. Shake well. Store in a cool, dark place for one month, shaking well 2-3 times a month. I know this last step takes patience and is a hassel; but it is worth it! MJH4M@POE.ACC.VIRGINIA.EDU ("MARGARET J. HARVEY") REC.FOOD.RECIPES From rec.food.cooking archives.
