Instructions
- Combine ground arabica coffee beans and rum in an airtight container with a tight seal, a large mason jar works perfectly.,Shake gently and store in a cool, dark place for three weeks, gently shaking the jar every few days.
- After the infusion is ready, strain the mixture using a nut milk bag or coffee filter, squeezing the bag or filter to extract all of the liquid. Discard coffee beans and set aside.
- Combine the brown sugar and water in a small saucepan over medium-high heat, whisking constantly to dissolve the sugar. Once the sugar is dissolved and it barely reaches a boil, turn off the heat, and set aside to cool slightly.
- Whisk the vanilla extract into the brown sugar simple syrup. Pour the coffee-infused rum into the simple syrup and stir to combine. Pour liqueur into a clean airtight container like a swing-top bottle. Seal and refrigerate until ready to use.,Did you love the recipe? Give us some stars and leave a comment below!
