I recently realized that Kahlua has quite a few carbs. 😡 I have been making the occasional White Russian, and even though it has not been spiking me, I thought I’d look into low carb Kahlua substitute. The following is attempt #1, I modified a recipe I found on the net. I think attempt #2 will use smaller amounts until I get things the way I want…
2.25 cups of water, coffee for about 4 cups of coffee ground to a powder. 8 servings of stevia and 2 cups of Vodka.
Boil the pulverized coffee in the water (at least 1 minute after it hits a rolling boil). Let the coffee settle a bit and then pour about 2 cups worth into the 8 servings of stevia. Let cool and add to 2 cups of vodka.
For a first attempt, it was not bad, but I found it a little too sweet and a little too strong on the coffee flavor. Next time I will try about half the coffee and 2/3s the stevia.
Does anyone one else have a recipe they like?
