Extra Espresso Beans?

Coffee liqueur:

1 cup (2.4 dl) Sauvie Island Coffee's Espresso Blend
1 cup sugar
2 cups vodka (40-50% or 80-100 proof)
1/2 vanilla bean split lengthwise

Make a fresh brew of espresso coffee . Add the sugar. After cooling, add the vanilla bean and vodka. Transfer to a bottle. After 2-4 weeks strain, remove the vanilla bean and transfer to a new bottle.

You may substitute half a cup of vodka with brandy to obtain a slightly different flavor.
