Here's my version that I have had and used for 40 years. 2 cups boiling water 3 1/2 cups sugar 2/3 cup "Yuban" instant coffee or any really dark instant coffee 2 cups brandy 1 vanilla bean, divided Dissolve sugar & coffee in water. Let stand 5 min. then stir in brandy. Using cheese cloth, strain into sterile bottles. Break vanilla bean in half for each bottle. 3 months-fair, 6 months-good, 12 months-excellent. The longer it ages, it gets thicker and more syrupy. I have some that is over 5 years old. Like coffee candy over ice cream. Sounds like not enough coffee flavor.
