HOW TO MAKE COFFEE LIQUEUR - BRUCE'S LIQUOR LAB | BAR TALK & COCKTAILS

This one has been on the back burner for a while now. We've been crafting a new series to add to the Bar Talk ensemble I like to call - Bruce's Liquor Lab. Over the years a lot of you (the viewers) have requested that I do some episodes on how to make your own liquor. So to answer some of your requests, I'll be doing just that. In this series I'll be making/experimenting with do it yourself spirits and liqueurs. These won't be as quick and easy like mixing together a cocktail. A lot of this stuff will take time and a lot of patience. If you don't know me by now, I never seem to do things the quick and easy way. This will be a lot of fun. To start I'm going to show you how to make some Coffee Liqueur. I'll be honest with you...I like this so much better than Kahlúa. Initially it will take about 2 weeks to make, but if you really want to do it properly, you'll let it sit for 3 months before you start drinking it!
Hope you enjoy!
Right now we only have this one completed due to the fact we filmed it long before the Covid-19 Pandemic. We do have many planned to do once things start to return to normal...however some of these liqueurs take months to make so I couldn't tell you just yet when the next Liquor Lab will air. But like I say - "Patience is key" hahaha cheers! Hope you are all staying safe and healthy! We'll all get through this.
