Kahlua

One of my favorite drinks around the holiday is a White Russian.  Here is a recipe for the Kahlua.  It makes a great gift if someone you know likes coffee flavored drinks.

3 1/4 c. sugar
3 C. water
Boil for 5 -7 minutes

Separately:
1/4 c. water
1/4 c. instant coffee
Bring to a boil until coffee dissolves completely

Immediately combine both mixes into a large container with 1/2 a vanilla bean.  Once mix has cooled completely add 4/5 bottle of 100 proof vodka.  Age 2 weeks moving upside down occasionally to keep mixing up.
