Strawberry-infused Vodka |
Citrus fruit and herbs are exempt from this, but bacon and sliced strawberries are great examples of porous substances.
Infusing liquor is very easy. To make an absolutely amazing berry-infused vodka or berry-infused rum, follow these simple steps:
Take a large container that can be sealed air-tight and add a bottle of your liquor of choice and whole berries (rinsed and patted dry) - do not cut the stems or greens off the berry.
Then seal the container and leave it to infused for 4 to 6 weeks. Yes, I said 4 to 6 weeks.
Open the container and strain the berry-infused liquor into a glass bottle. Serve over ice and enjoy!
Yum! My patience/forgetfulness can now be rewarded!

ReplyDeletesounds really perfect with Champagne...
like 'pretty woman' :)
I should definitely try!
You absolutely should! My favorite way of serving it up is over ice, with a sprig of mint. I have a batch in the works as we speak. Just a couple more weeks to go!

ReplyDeleteI've been DYING to know how to do this! I would have cut the stems and such so I'm glad you pointed out not to! <3
ReplyDeleteDefinitely trying that someday, esp now that it's summer over here.
ReplyDeleteUmm, wondering if there is a special treat or suggestion for the strawberries after... Just pop them in your mouth? Also on citrus; do you cut them up or just pop them in whole too?
