Questions & Replies

  1. I got a crate of clear long neck bottles no caps. What can I use to seal it? Aren't you supposed to use a dark bottle or wrap with aluminum foil. I was told it has to be in the dark for at least 3 weeks so we wrapped the bottles with aluminum foil. I need help with the sealing of the bottles...I have 30 to seal. Any tip would be appreciated very much, thanks

  1. Fantastic! I loved that this recipe is so simple and straightforward. It's very easy and yet it yields a superb product. I used genuine Mexican vanilla to make the Kahlua, and am especially pleased with the results!
     
  2. This is nice! And ridiculously easy. I had read that rum could be used in this instead of vodka, so I made mine with rum. Thank you very much for sharing this very useful recipe with us.
