Try extracting the freshly ground coffee with the spirit for 24h and the pass it through a coffe filter, then add the sweetener. Its less bitter, more coffetasting and the caffeine packs more of a punch

I recently discovered a partial bottle that got shoved to the back and, man, a little age (1 year) does wonders for a bottled spirit sometimes!! I wouldn't know because I too, am of the right here, right now mindset.

On a similar theme. . . I used to holiday in France and many French people would end their meal with an espresso coffee but they would leave a little in the bottom of the cup, add a sugar lump and small glass of brandy., or eau de vie in rural areas. I believe that authentic eau de vie is now difficult to find. This was then stirred with a teaspoon, and sipped with great enjoyment. Not all the sugar was dissolved but this is not important, the taste is delicious and each sip gets a little sweeter. So easy to do and gives instant results for those of us lacking the patience to make coffee liqueurs by the bottle at home. It's nearly Christmas - an ideal time to give this a go.

The eau de vie that I had in mind was the old fashioned home made stuff. In the 70s and 80s there used to be portable stills that would travel around the countryside so that small-time wine makers could distil the must left over after they had made their wine. It was pretty lethal stuff mostly and the farmers had to have a licence to use the stills. There were accidents with dangerous batches of eau de vie sometimes being made and so the French government stopped issuing any new licences the and as the older farmers died out so the practice stopped, I assume. @@jonathanvonwowern-barrefor6618

Personally I would use Ron Zacapa 23 for the Rum and Glenfiddich 15 Solara cask instead of the bourbon. Both go very well with coffee.

I'm a big fan of Mr. Black, specifically because it's high quality coffee and made less sweet; as you say, Kahlua is very sweet. I've also made an amaro using infusing the liquor with coffee, spices, and bittering agents a whip cream canister... very good but a lot of work. This seems much easier! I'd love to try this with tequila, as well, since nothing screams Mexican beverage like tequila. Like you, I also love bourbon, so expect I would love that version... I did make vanilla extract and used bourbon for that, too.

I used your ratios but instead of sugar, I used (generic) Splenda and white rum. I'm diabetic and just don't need extra sugar in my diet. This came out fantastic! And because Splenda is so much easier to dissolve, no boiling was needed, just pour the hot coffee over the sweetener and whisk to combine.

I find it fascinating that you have tasted them immediately. I have a recipe for Kahlua that when I first tried it I thought it was terrible, so I put it away in the liquor cabinet and forgot about it. Then one evening I was thinking that I would pull out the bottle and give it another try and was amazed at the flavor! I tasted EXACTLY like Kahlua. Great video thumbs up.

Depending on the recipe, sometimes homemade liqueurs are undrinkable until the spirit has had time to extract flavor from the ingredients. For example- using grain alcohol (like everclear) and whole spices- tasting that right away would be a dare even I would turn down 😂 But this recipe results in an instantly drinkable concoction, and it does get even a little better after it’s rested a day :)

Have you tried Mr boston coffee brandy with halfandhalf?

Ok.. so made the Vodka one and the Rum one.. Used Russian Standard vodka and Bacardi white. I also tinkered a bit and infused the alcohol for an hour or so (impatient!) in 4 tablespoons of espresso ground coffee before filtering it then added it to the moka coffee syrup. .... I used a simple syrup 1:1 rather than the 2:1 sugar ratio. ..........Which one is better? Impossible to say... both delicious and easily sweet enough!

Fantastic!! Love to hear that you’re experimenting and enjoying the process! As to alternative sugar, there are some lower glycemic sugars on the market (I have a video from way back on this). However, most of them recrystallize after a short period of time. So unless you’re consuming/serving right away, I’d either stick with sugar, honey, agave or maple syrup as your sweetener. Hope this helps!

I have not, but funny you ask because I had specifically addressed this and then cut it out for time 😂 That being said, I have two concerns with Allulose. 1- there are sometimes recrystallization issues with alternative sugars in general (although alluose is actually the least of the offenders here). I’m not sure if the alcohol content would prohibit the recrystallizing, so it might be worth trying out. But, 2- Allulouse in high quantities comes with some toxicity concerns. There is a LOT of sugar in this, so I would do a little more research and be cautious. Best bet might be to try using Monk Fruit and adding a little xanthan gum to keep the syrup portion from recrystallizing (but even using that, I’ve had alternative syrups eventually recrystallize). Hope this helps!!
