How to make Galician coffee liqueur:
- To make this incredible coffee liqueur you will need a glass container with a capacity of about 2-3 liters that can be covered. When you have it, add the brandy there.
- Besides, make a syrup by heating the water with the sugar for a few minutes. When it starts to boil, turn off and let cool, then pour the syrup into the same container with the brandy.
- Also add the fruit peels and cinnamon to the container with the liquor. This will make the coffee liqueur have a particular aroma, if you don’t like citrus you can skip this step.
- Add all the ground coffee and cover the container, preferably airtight. Let rest for at least 10 days, stirring daily. If you prefer you can also use decaffeinated coffee.
- After this time, strain the coffee liqueur at least twice. You can use a very fine mesh strainer or a cloth strainer.
- Store in a cool place and pack the Galician coffee liqueur in a bottle. It is recommended to wait at least a year between its preparation and its consumption, but that is already to taste.
