Tips:

  • Always use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the overall flavor of your Kahlúa cognac.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different ratios of coffee, cognac, and sugar. The perfect balance will depend on your personal taste preferences.
  • If you don't have a coffee maker, you can make cold brew coffee by steeping ground coffee in cold water for 12-24 hours. Just be sure to strain the coffee before using it.
  • You can use any type of cognac you like in this recipe, but a good-quality VSOP or XO cognac will give you the best results.
  • Be sure to let the Kahlúa cognac age for at least 2 weeks before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
