Directions:
Boil coffee and first 1½ quart water gently for about 20 minutes.
Strain to get coffee grounds out. My aunt would pour through a clean kitchen towel or old pillow case.

Simmer 2½ quarts water with 7 cups sugar for about 45 minutes.
Blend coffee mixture with sugar mixture.
Add vanilla and Everclear.
Separate into containers that can be kept cool in fridge and given to friends.
