Oh my, this took a while to perfect as I don't drink caffine or do sugar.......so this is for all those who don't do either of those and a bonus: one for the under 21 crowd. Every time I made a batch and decided it wasn't quite right AND if I could still stand, it was back to the drawing board, yummmmm. Hope you enjoy :) Blessings, Keri

How To Make keri's kaluha ( a version for the kids too)

  • Step 1
    Combine first four ingredients in a large pot, place on stove and bring to a boil for 20 minutes, stiring frequently.

    Remove from heat and add 4 cups of ice cubes to cool to room temprature. Let cool longer if needed.

    When mix is totally cool, add the "Everclear" (ommitt the Everclear for the non-acholic type). Mix well and using a funnel, pour into bottles and cap. Can be stored up to a year maybe longer. Ours has never lasted that long.
  • Step 4
    To make drinks: Kaluha and cream: (self-explanitory, lol)I like to use "heavy whiiping cream found in the milk section, pour over ice. White Russian: Kaluha, cream and a shot of vodka over ice. Black Russian: Same as above but omitt the cream. Rootbeer float: Kaluha, cream, ice and then add a half can of coke or other soda. Kids LOVE this mixed (non-alcohol version) with cream and soda also.
