This recipe I love to make around Thanksgiving to drink or give as presents at Christmastime. The longer you wait the better it is, try and wait 4 weeks. I got this recipe from one of my own concoctions from trying several different recipes.
4 cups water
1 cup instant coffee crystals (such as Folgers® Classic Roast)
2 cups light brown sugar
2 cups lightly packed dark brown sugar
1 (750 milliliter) bottle 190 proof grain alcohol (such as Everclear®)
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 vanilla bean
split lengthwise and halved
