Coffee Punch

I had never heard of this unusual take on punch, and although I don't like coffee, this is a refreshing change from the usual icky sweet punches that are usually served. It's simple and delicious. This old dog learned a delicious new trick from one of my son's 30 something friends.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup sugar
  • 8 Tbsp. instant coffee
  • 1 cup Kahlua
  • 2 Tbsp. vanilla
  • 1/2 gallon whole milk
  • 1/2 gallon vanilla ice cream

Directions:

Mix sugar and coffee together in a punch bowl. Add the rest of the liquid ingredients. Stir well.

Add ice cream and serve.

Makes one punch bowl full. Better have extra ingredients handy because your guests will come back for more.

Is there a good substitute for the Kahlua? Sounds delicious, but I'd prefer it with out alcohol.
