How to Make Homemade Coffee Liqueur (5 Steps)

Coffee liqueur is used in drinks such as mudslides, White Russians and B-52s. Keeping your liquor cabinet stocked with name brand coffee liqueur can be expensive, so learn to make your own homemade alternative. Once you've made your coffee liqueur, let it sit somewhere cool for at least two weeks to allow the flavors to blend. Your homemade coffee liqueur also makes a sweet gift over the holidays.
