Method

Preparation

1

Brew the Coffee

Start by brewing 1 cup of strong coffee. You can use a coffee maker or a French press. Make sure the coffee is hot and freshly brewed.

2

Dissolve Sugar

In a separate saucepan, combine the brewed coffee and 1 cup of sugar. Heat it over low heat, stirring constantly until the sugar is fully dissolved. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

3

Add Flavorings

Once the coffee and sugar mixture has cooled, add 2 tablespoons of vanilla extract. Stir well to combine.

4

Combine with Vodka

Pour in 1 cup of vodka into the mixture and stir until fully combined.

5

Add Water

Finally, add 1 cup of water to the mixture and stir until all ingredients are well blended.

Serving

6

Chill the Mixture

Transfer the Tia Maria mixture into a clean bottle or jar. Seal it tightly and refrigerate for at least 24 hours to allow the flavors to meld.

7

Serve

When ready to serve, pour the Tia Maria into a glass over ice. If desired, sprinkle a little cocoa powder on top and garnish with coffee beans.
