Homemade Vanilla Bean Coffee Blend

Ingredients:
- 4 vanilla beans, scraped
- 1 lb coffee beans, freshly ground

Directions:
- Using a paring knife, scrape the seeds from the vanilla beans.
- Mix the scraped seeds with the coffee.
- For best results use a medium-bodied coffee from Kenya or Colombia.
- Transfer the mix into a coffee bag.
- Decorate with a lilac ribbon(use whichever is your favourite colour) and don't forget to add your personal message before you seal it up with a pretty sticker.
- Enjoy the season of Christmas, Hannukah and New Year!
- Note: You may substitute the vanilla beans with 1 or 2 tsps. of cinnamon or nutmeg powder for a different flavour. I haven't tried other flavours, but if you do, be sure to let me know in your comments how it turned out.
