Below you can find the full recipe... INGREDIENTS - 750mL Vodka or Rum (high proof, 50%) - 500g Cacao Nibs - 3 Vanilla Beans (Split) - Simple Syrup: 250g Brown/Demerara Sugar + 250g Water METHOD 1. Add both the cacao nibs, vanilla beans and your liquor to a swingtop bottle 2. Rest for 2 weeks, shaking periodically 3. Add 1:1 simple syrup to your bottle 4. Rest for a further 1-2 days 5. Voila, brown creme de cacao! NOTES Alternatively, if you don't have the patience to wait several weeks, you can use heat to speed up the process. Gently heat the bottle in a water bath (30-60 mins) in place of the two weeks resting. Music: "Leaving Her Flowers" by Birocratic (http://birocratic.lnk.to/allYL)
