This recipe was given to me by a very nice cocktail waitress at a little neighborhood Mexican restaurant called Dave and Dar's in Denver about 25 years ago. The restaurant is long gone, but te recipe still lingers.

1
Bring sugar and water to a boil.
2
Stir until sugar is completely dissolved.
3
Add coffee.
4
Let cool to room temperature.
5
Add vanilla and grain alcohol.
6
Bottle and let set for at least one week, and preferably a month or longer, before serving.

Note: I have also had it after allowing it to age for 15 minutes, and it was still pretty good, but definitely a little rough around the edges.
Ratings & Reviews:
I, too, have been making this for many. many years. Now that I go to bed a lot earlier than I used to, I make it with decaf instant coffee. The PERFECT nightcap!

I have been making this ever since college.. Only instead of using 3 cups of sugar, I use 2 cups of sugar and 2 cups of white Karo syrup..
Makes it smoother!
Enjoy!
