Ingredients

• 750 ml Vodka
• 1 cup (adjust based on ingredient and intensity) Flavoring ingredient(s) (e.g., berries, citrus peel, herbs, spices, or vanilla beans)
• 1 count Glass jar or bottle with a tight-sealing lid

Directions

Step 1

1. Choose your flavoring ingredient(s) based on your desired taste profile. Examples: berries (e.g., strawberries or raspberries), citrus peels (e.g., lemon, lime, or orange), fresh herbs (e.g., mint or basil), spices (e.g., cinnamon sticks or cloves), or vanilla beans.

Step 2

2. Wash and prepare the flavoring ingredients. For fruits, rinse and slice them. For herbs, gently bruise them to release their oils. For spices, lightly toast them if desired for a deeper flavor.

Step 3

3. Add the prepared flavoring ingredient(s) to the glass jar or bottle. Use approximately 1 cup of ingredients for every 750 ml of vodka, adjusting based on ingredient intensity.

Step 4

4. Pour the vodka over the flavoring ingredient(s) until they are fully submerged.

Step 5

5. Seal the jar or bottle tightly with a lid and give it a gentle shake to distribute the ingredients.

Step 6

6. Store the jar or bottle in a cool, dark place for 3 to 7 days. Shake it gently once a day to encourage infusion.

Step 7

7. Taste the vodka after 3 days. If it's reached your desired flavor strength, proceed to the next step. If not, allow it to continue infusing and check daily.

Step 8

8. Once the vodka is infused to your liking, strain it through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a clean bottle or jar to remove the solids.

Step 9

9. Seal the finished flavored vodka and store it in the refrigerator or freezer. It can be enjoyed as part of a cocktail or on its own.
