For my next entry I would like to submit an adult drink that is perfect for the cold holidays! Actually, a sipping liqueur. The beauty of this recipe is that you can easily adjust the bulk of the ingredients to taste. I like mine with enough alcohol so it doesn't freeze when I store it in the freezer.


Coffee Liqueur: A flavorful ice cold drink that brings warmth to your innards.. Best served straight from the freezer.

Hardware requirements:

1. Large sauce pan

2. Mason Jars


Ingredients:

4 cups of water

1 to 2 cups of brown sugar

2 to 3 cups of white sugar
*note* there should be around (or less than) 4 cups of sugar total between the brown sugar and white sugar.

3/4's to 1 cup of your favorite instant coffee

3 cups neutral flavored grain alcohol (Everclear works great! I suppose you could use something weaker such as 100 proof Vodka too..) **With enough foresight, The high proof alcohol does present an opportunity to introduce THC into the recipe. You know... should you want to...**

3 Vanilla beans, split in half lengthwise


Cooking:

1. In a large sauce pan over medium heat, combine the sugar and water.

2. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes.

3. Remove from heat and add coffee.

4. Allow it to cool.

5. Once cooled, add grain alcohol and stir well.

6. Pour into a few large mason jars.

7. Add vanilla bean dividing up it up between the jars.

8. Close the jars and keep sealed.

9. Shake vigorously once or twice daily for first 2 weeks.

10. After two weeks, shake once or twice every few days for an additional 2 weeks.

It will be ready to drink in a month or two (or whenever you cant wait any longer!)

11. Pass it through a strainer to remove the vanilla beans and divide into jars for storage and gifting.

Here is the recipe
Banana cake with chocolate and macaroons(this says the translator )
I have used cannabutter made ​​by Super Silver Sour Diesel Haze x Jack Herer
Recipe :
Ingredients for the dough :

• 5 eggs
• 200 grams . crushed macaroons
• 120 grams . chocolate
• 120 grams . butter
• zest of 1 lemon and 1 orange ( sprinkle them with sugar and let them stand in the refrigerator for 1 night )
• 120 grams . flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• vanilla
• 3 bananas
• 80 g brown sugar ( I use this molasses unrefined )
• 3-4 tablespoons cognac or brandy

Frosting and decorations :

• 100 grams . cream
• 100 grams . plain chocolate
• 20 grams . butter
• 1 banana
• macaroons

Preparation:

1. Beat the yolks with the white sugar cream. Add chocolate , vanilla , citrus peel and mix. Then add the butter and crushed macaroons . Finally, pour the flour mixed with baking powder , it turns a beat- up egg whites . Stir gently with a wooden paddle and not a mixer
2. In a container with nonstick pour brown sugar and alcohol. Boil briefly. I recommend you on the dark sugar, as it is with a rich caramel flavor. Cut the bananas into thin long strips , circles or whatever you prefer. Caramelized them in a caramel sauce for 1 minute and remove from heat (I use this sauce with a little cognac or brandy and some water to water the cake ). Allow them to cool slightly .
3. Gently mix the bananas with the dough to prevent crushing. Spread bottom of baking dish with baking paper . Pour the dough and bake for about 35 - 40min . in a pre-heated to 180 * C oven . Leave to cool well before you pour the glaze .
4. For the glaze , heat the cream, chocolate and butter. Stir until smooth.
5. Pour slightly warm glaze and garnish with banana slices and macaroons .
6. and this ball in the center of the cake is a marble hash of this variety again
