Talking Low Carb Kahlua

okk - so I didn't double check the carb count but this recipe is pretty good & makes you feel normal....
found it at: http://www.carboholics.com/new/beverages/lckahlua.htm

Low Carb Kahlua

This makes a great gift for your low carb friends. In coffee, over ice with cream, or in a Mudslide, with some Low Carb Irish Cream this is delicious!

You will need an empty bottle or large glass jar to store the Kahlua in.

1 ltr. bottle 80 proof vodka (trace amount of carbs)

1 ltr. spring or purified water

2 tbps. vanilla extract, or one large vanilla bean split and scraped

1 tbs. good quality instant coffee

1/2 to 3/4 cup Splenda or sugar substitute. Adjust according to your taste.

Combine 1st 4 ingredients in a covered saucepan. Warm until coffee is dissolved. Remove from heat and leave covered (or alcohol will boil away). While still warm add sweetner. Pour into container and put container in a brown paper bag and store in a dark place for at least a week to let flavors blend. Okay, I admit it, I have had some right after it cools, but it is best after a couple of weeks.

Approx. 8 Carbs in entire recipe.

That sounds dangerously good! Does it really taste like Kahlua?

Talking Yep

I kinda get used to being in the mind set that nothing really tastes as good as before but I think this is yummy. It seems stronger though...Add to heavy whipping cream or drop some cool whip in and it's great!
When you try it let me know what you think!

Okay I will! Right now I'm trying to avoid Splenda and alcohol, so it might not be for awhile. But I printed the recipe out and will try it, maybe in a month or so. Or if I have a wild craving for Kahlua, maybe sooner! Hehe!
