Jeanne-Hmmm, that is something I should know, eh? We usually keep it in a cool dark place for about 3 months, but online I saw everything from “enjoy immediately” to “let age 1 month”. . .

Thank you for the recipe. I was wondering…how long does this need to age prior to drinking?

I made kahlua a few years ago, and used Grolsch beer bottles- The resealable ones. They worked great, and luckily I have some left, so I am trying your recipe this year. Thanks!

Glad everyone is enjoying the recipe! I hope you like it as much as we do.

Melisa-As far as sealing: Our friend Randy just did screw caps. The last time I did them up fancy I used corks (which can be hard to find sometimes). I melted paraffin wax (from the canning aisle) in a double boiler and added a red crayon to die the wax a color. Then I did the whole “dip & cool, dip & cool” thing until I felt the wax was deep enough. To be extra fancy I pressed a star shaped pin I had down into the top to make an impression

Planning on doing this for the holidays. Thanks for your recipe. How do you seal the bottles…cork? screw tops? then what type of wax do you use to top them off?
